re entry permit help needed

[osbor1]

Hello,

i'm about to file a reentry permit and I need some help to understand the following:

*I am planning to leave after filing and to come back for the biometrics, should I put the date of actual leave or a fake one 3, 4 weeks after filing?
*the inputable form online only give 2 digits for the length of trip, and it says days, I think this is a bug anyone experiencing the same?
* is form date 3/22/13 the latest available?
* I'm a LPR green card holder, what should I put under class of admission part 1, pt. 6. I do not seem to find a suitable one for LPR
* how do I tell them that I want also the notice for biometric sent to the lawyer?
* should I add a cover letter? (maybe mentioning the pt above and why I want to the permit)
* what docs should I add to the application?

Thanks a lot to everyone for your invaluable help

1. it takes 3 to 4 weeks to get a fingerpring notice, what is important is the mailing date.
2. dont know
3. dont know
4. class of admission is the category printed of your green card.
5. then your lawyer should send the application or simply put the mailing adress of your lawyer
6. is this the first time you 're applying for a reentry permit?? simply put the reason..school, familly ..etc
7. copy of the green card and picture id.
6.

Write the date you plan to leave after biometrics.

*the inputable form online only give 2 digits for the length of trip, and it says days, I think this is a bug anyone experiencing the same?

Print the form and write it in by hand.

* is form date 3/22/13 the latest available?

Check the USCIS web site on their I-131 page.

* I'm a LPR green card holder, what should I put under class of admission part 1, pt. 6. I do not seem to find a suitable one for LPR

Print the form and write LPR.

* how do I tell them that I want also the notice for biometric sent to the lawyer?

Include form G-28 with your lawyer's details. Don't choose your lawyer's address as the mailing address. With the G-28, they'll send the biometrics notice both to your address and your lawyer.

* should I add a cover letter? (maybe mentioning the pt above and why I want to the permit)

Not necessary.

* what docs should I add to the application?

See the I-131 instructions.

THANKS A LOT GUYS!!!! - really helpful

1 last thing if anyone has a clue.

on Part 5 it say: Total time spent outside US since getting the GC.

my situation is this: since getting the card +/-10 month, but since my last visit 2 months. Do I risk a denial if I check the box 6 to 1 yr. (the truth), or better take the risk and check the box "less than 6 months"?

I guess if one download the form directly from their site, it must be the current one.

A BIG thank you!!

Include form G-28 with your lawyer's details. Don't choose your lawyer's address as the mailing address.

Clarification: I meant don't write your lawyer's address as the mailing address for your I-131. But on the G-28 you'll put all the lawyer's details as requested.

You risk denial if you lie.

Generally the amount of time outside the US won't affect your Reentry permit approval unless it's more than 4 years.

Thanks a LOT Jacko

I just realized that on my passport stamp they put RCA but not the alien #, apparently this is just a courtesy and the Immig. officer does not need to put (or at least some do not).

My problem is that on the application they ask for the A #... what should I put RCA or say that they did not put it?

Thanks again man, and to everyone for the help

If you don't know your A#, you'll just have to leave it blank. They'll look it up from the other information you provide (although this may delay the processing a little bit).
