About our series, "How to Expedite Reentry Permit/Advance Parole":
Many people have urgent reasons to travel, whether it is to visit a family member facing a medical emergency or to attend to an urgent business matter. But for those who have pending green card applications, or green card holders who need to be outside of the U.S. for more than 1 year, they must first apply for the I-131 travel document in order to safely leave the country without jeopardizing their legal status. The COVID-19 pandemic has further complicated the situation by causing long processing delays or canceling biometrics appointments.
In this series, Joseph will outline the in's and out's of expediting the I-131 reentry permit or advance parole travel document, including expediting and rescheduling the biometrics appointment, and much more. Please see below for links to the entire video series on this important topic

This a mightmare!!!!
I lived im Mexicoas an turist for 1 year and all I had to do was go to the "NCIS" office and pay a $40 dollars fee and update my address, 0 complications.

[@GregorySonofGod777]

Should I call USCIS and tell them I need to leave earlier than set date on application?

[@mamaandme16208]

Oh I saw your youtube video on this

[@medicalkate5671]

Hi, My mom is here in MI with me on a B1/B2 for six months. Will she get her extension for sure because she is 81 years old? ( i support her totally) Thank you

[@TsangAssociatesPLC]

Hard to say! Ultimately it's up to USCIS

[@goodman003]

Each time I apply for B1/B2 now for second time they give me 3 months visa while others are getting 10 years is there any reason I don't get 10 years like others ?

[@melodiejupiter]

B1/B2 Visa for ten years? Are you sure of that umm???

[@Kylo_Ren_2033]

This might depends on where are you from. I know they gave ten-year B1/B2 to Chinese citizens but one admission only lasts 90 days as usual.

[@GregorySonofGod777]

Will I get banned for 3 years or only 1 year on that case?

Hello, my situation is quite different and I am wondering if you could give me advice as to what to do. I have B1/B2 visa valid from May 2023 to Aug 2023 due to a sports event to be held in Guam. I have an annotation that my visa is only valid for Guam for the event. The event was originally on June 19-28, 2023. But because of the super typhoon that hit Guam the event was postponed. Now, the new date is on November 2023. But my visa will expire in August. The organizer in Guam informed me to extend my visa thru 539 form. There are 4 of us in the group with the same situation. My question is: Can we extend our visa using this form? Or do we have to reapply? We have not been to the US.
