Traveling Outside the US As Asylee applicant ,Asylee,LPR through Asylum

[rojo]

My spouse's RTD has been approved in 12 months.

My spouse;
-received asylum status 1/3/24
-applied RTD through asylum status 5/1/24
-applied GC 4/1/24
-received GC 1/4/25 (surprise!)
-received RTD 5/29/25

but my spouse was asylee at the time of applying RTD. but received GC before receiving RTD.

Any issues? I mean is RTD only dependent on asylee status or GC status? or it doesn't matter?

After 1 year, is my spouse going to apply for Re-entry? or something else?

Nice and thanks for sharing! Did your spouse send medicals along with I-485 or separately? Also what is you spouse's COP? Or at least the region if you don't want to share the country?

No issues, as a Green Card holder via asylum, we should be using RTD + GC (if you have it) until we become US citizens.

The general consensus on the board here is that you apply for next RTD as soon as you get one.
So for example, your spouse should file for the next one right away, since he/she received it yesterday he/she should file for a new one right now. By the time this one expires, he/she will need to wait just 2 months (since it takes 14 months today) to get the new one.

I just want to reiterate that I am not an attorney so don't take my word for it, I can't give legal advice.

No issue. As she got her GC through asylum, she can always apply for either an RTD or RP (Re-Entry Permit) until she becomes a citizen.

Technically, you need to wait for a new one for 5-8 months (since today it takes 14 months), because many countries accept documents that have at least 6 months left before expiration. For some European countries, it is 3 months
