I am a permanent resident of US last one and half year. My wife and two kids (9years, 6years) got the permanent residency at the same time. Now I am planning to send my wife and kids for studies to India. Please let me know up to how many years they can get travel document approval through applying I-131.

I am planning to apply for citizenship after three years. Can I start citizenship processing while they are in India. This question to decide how long I can send them to India. If their presence is required I can bring them while applying for Citizenship. I will
appreciate you valuable information on this.
