Reentry permit or Refugee Travel Document

[Rufftouch]

A little bit confused but just wanted some clearance.

I had an asylum case sent back to the judge for adjudication from BIA (9th circuit sent it back). Judge asked me to fill out prosecutorial discretion since I had an approved I-130 filled by my wife (citizen). Prosecutorial discretion/ motion approved by the judge. I filled I-485 and went for interview. The interviewer verbally approved it so I'm waiting for my Green Card (Permanent Resident Card). Meanwhile I would like to travel once I get my Green card, so I'm not sure if I need to get a Refugee Travel Document or a Reetry Permit. I don not have a passport neither can I get a passport from my country of origin. Which of these am I qualified to apply for? 1. My asylum case is not the basis of my permanent residency. 2. My wife is a US citizen so its not a derivative of a permanent resident (approved through asylum). Any advice help would be highly appreaciated.

Thanks.

With a green card you're eligible for either one. Differences:

1. Reentry permit lasts for 2 years, but the refugee travel document is only valid for one year.
2. Just about every other country in the world accepts the RTD in lieu of a passport, whereas fewer of them will accept the RP.
3. Green card holders with or without a national passport can use the RP as authorization to stay outside the US for 2 years (normally one year outside the US will invalidate the green card).
