If you travel to another country with your national passport and then come back with travel document and green card will they ask why there is no visa in your travel document?
When you are coming back to US with Travel Document do they look for the visa?

thankful, I think you work at an airport. You valuable input would be highly appreciated.
For some reason i thought you were working at the airport.
I have no idea how you acquired that impression. For the record, I am a just- graduated law student and I will be clerking for a federal judge soon.
mslunda,
It is very common for people with GC to travel back to their country using their national passport and then using a travel document to re-enter the US. For many it is a matter of convenience. This is usually not a problem, although you may be asked about it by the IO.
The only times this is problematic are when there are irregularities, such as travel to the COP, extended stays (over several years) outside the US, and when a naturalized US citizen uses their prior nation's passport to travel outside the US (usu. occurs when someone wants to appear to remain a citizen of their prior country even though that country does not recognize dual citizenship, such as China).
The only reason you should worry about whether the IO asks about no visa is if one of these irregularities applies to you. If not, there's no need to worry.
Senowen, thank you very much for your input! I think, as usual, it all depends on your luck. I thought after you had become a citizen they didt question you as much.
