Traveling outside of the U.S with an open asylum and green card

[marth_]

Hi, I recently got a green-card which I obtained through marriage. Before I got married, I applied for asylum with my mother when I was a minor as one of her dependents. I'm currently planning on traveling outside of the country, so my mother went to the asylum office that is processing our asylum and she filled out a withdrawal form and the employee there told her that we should receive a confirmation between 4-6 months. Is there any risk in traveling with just my green card, my passport and the asylum withdrawal form whithout the confirmation? I'm not going to the country that I applied for asylum from.

Should be okay, since you were a derivative asylee applicant, so you weren't the one claiming fear of persecution.

Hello,

I'm a Russian citizen who was granted asylum and changed my status to permanent resident a few months ago. Recently, I discovered that I may be eligible to receive Armenian citizenship because of my roots.

Questions:

1. If I become an Armenian citizen and travel in and out of the US using my new Armenian passport along with the Green Card, will it cause any issues? (I'm not planning to go to Russia).

2. Will it create any complications when I apply for US citizenship?

No, you will be fine. Once you have your green card all good. Just stay out of Russia until you're a citize of this country, and if you really have to go, gather documentation to support your reason for going.
