Leave before I-131 biometrics and come back for appointment?
Hey all.
I'm about to be due to file my I-751 to remove conditions. I know once I have receipt confirmation for that, my green card gets automatic extension.
I'm gonna be filing I-131 at the same time because I am leaving for more than a year. The issue is my earliest file date for I-751 is one month before my travel date so it is very unlikely I will get biometrics appointment before leaving. Since my green card will still be valid, can I just fly back for the biometrics appointment? Or is the I-131 considered abandoned if I leave at all, even for a short period?
(Please don't question motives for why I'm trying to get permanent residence if I'm travelling that long, if I didn't want to come back to live here I wouldn't be spending thousands on paperwork.)
i130 Approved
It was a long wait but finally got an email saying action has been taken on your case today. Logged in to the portal and the approval notice was in the Documents section. They need to make the i130 process faster but glad it’s finally approved after almost 15 months!! Good luck to everyone who’s waiting and hope you get your approvals soon.
