Hello All,
I have a quick question, my wife came here on her visa and had to leave on emergency back to Russia because her grandmothers health was failing and they thought she was about to pass away. She's been there taking care of her for about a year and has made her final goodbyes and so on.
We received her green card in the mail about a month after she left, so she has that. It was our understanding that she could come and go as she wanted once the green card came, but now that she's ready to come back I am reading about this I-131.
Do we need to do this since she has her green card? Or does that only apply to those who are in the filing process or are on a visa?
If we do need to do it, is there any extra steps we need to take since we didn't do it prior to her departure?
I plan to call the USCIS if I can't get a clear answer. Just wondering if anyone on here knows! I'd appreciate anyone who has info/experience with this!
