Preguntas sobre I-131
Can I leave immediately after filing I-131?+
Some categories require presence at filing, and departure timing may affect the application, biometrics, or other pending cases.
Does Advance Parole guarantee reentry?+
No. It permits a request for parole at the port of entry; inspection and the final decision remain with the government.
Does a reentry permit preserve permanent residence?+
It may support temporary-travel intent but does not automatically eliminate abandonment or naturalization residence risks.
Can this worksheet be filed directly with USCIS?+
No. This is a I-131 preparation and English review worksheet. Transfer the answers to the current official form or USCIS online system.
Should AI translate a person's name?+
No. Use the existing English spelling on the passport or official record. Names and identification numbers are never sent to AI.
Why are the fee and mailing address not hardcoded?+
USCIS changes fees, Lockbox routing, and online-filing eligibility. Verify the official page on the day of filing.
