Re-Entry Permit I-131

I am entering just to activate my PR. I will file for RE permit and get biometric done before I leave State. Do I still get my Green Card and SSN or just stamp on the passport. If yes, do they send my GC on the address given on the POE ? Please clarify me.
 
Filling Re-entry Permit Form: Where do you write N/A?

Hi Good guys of the Forum,

I am filling a re-entry form and a bit unsure which places to write 'Not Applicable' (N/A). Should the areas for assylum or parole be filled with N/A if a permanent/green card holder?

Your responses will be appreciated.
Thanks
 
Steps to achieving Re-entry permit

Can somebody tell me;
What are the steps to apply for Re-entry permit?
does it need SSN & (or) GC?
How long it will be in my hands?

My reason for Re-entry permit is: Complete my company project AND continue my rest of Bachelor (BS.c) in my origin country.

approximately it is needed 1/5 to 2 years.

Yes, you DO need a GC for an RP. Without that, you are not eligible.

In my knowledge you do not have to have GC for an RP. An Instructions for Form I-131 says -

You must attach:

1. A copy of the front and back of your form I-551; or

2. If yo have not yet received your Form I-551, a copy of the biographic page(s) of your passport and a copy of the visa page showing your intitial admission as a permanent resident, or other evidence that you are a permanent resident; or

3. A copy of the Form I-797, Notice of Action, approval notice of an application for replacement of your Form I-551 or temporary evidence of permanent resident status.

You can apply very next day of your arrival of US. In my case, I entered US, (POE - Washington Dulles) on 6th Aug, 2009 with my wife and 2 daughters. I applied re-entry permit on 7th Aug with a cover letter explaining my situation. I got ASC appointment Notice for 19th Aug which is done in Detroit. Welcome letter received on 23rd Aug. We went at Social Security Office and apply for SSN. They said, they will send SSN with in 2 weeks time. I left country on 4th Sept., Waiting for GC.

If you need further information I am happy to help.
 
craigslist.org is the best place to find ANYTHING, including housing. To apply for an RP you need an I-131 form from CIS.
