Here is the info from my experience that may be useful to you

* I arrived in USA on March 28th and sent I-131 by express mail the same day
* I-131 sent with expedite request
* Finger Printing notice recd. on April 7th
* Finger Printing carried out on April 16th
* Left USA on April 19th
* Recd. email today that Re-Entry Permit has been mailed out on April 30th

Hope this will help somewhat, however I am not sure if this pattern is what is normally the case for I-131

It's probably enough, given that you can go for a walk-in once you have the biometrics notice in your hand, without having to wait for the actual appointment date.

However, for a few people it takes 5 weeks to get the notice, so there is maybe a 5% chance you will need a bit more than 4 weeks.

Tks for all answers, Im reading that ASC provides services only with appoiment, so how is the procedure to do a walk in fingerprinting? is that possible in all ASCs?
and just to know, we going to request the Re entry permit to be sent to our home Country consulate, how we will be notified when the permits are approved? is that by mail, or by an email? since we request to be notified by mail in USA.
that notice is nedeed to remove the Re entry permits from the US Consulate?
tks

Most places allow walk-ins if they're not busy at the moment. You just have to show up and hope they accept you; if you look online or call ahead they'll say you need an appointment but that's not true in for fingerprinting.

When you go for a walk-in, just hand over the biometrics notice and act as if nothing is wrong; don't say anything about the different date unless they mention it.

and request interview 5 days before travel.

Also they said that the Mother could not fly back to the US after birth with out the baby, and
 
You do not need anything from the US consulate to bring the baby back to the US, unless the particular country's government requires it for allowing the baby to leave the country. The US POE officer does not require anything from the US consulate, and will let the baby enter with a birth certificate (including English translation, if applicable), baby's passport, and 2 passport-size pictures (assuming other conditions are met such as being accompanied by the LPR mother and the baby is less than 2 years old).
 
Hi Jackolantern and tarmac727,

Thank you very much for your kind information.

Tarmac, are you from India??

Thanks

Hi Jackolantern, I thought that, but I sent an Email to our Home country US Consulate asking how to board an aircraft to the US with our baby and they send us an email with the requirements, they said that if we met all requirements they going to issue what they call Baby transportation letter, for only one time use to enter to the US, then once in USA at the POE, Uscis order the card for the baby. in fact tomorrow we have an interview at the US Consulate here in home country.
Tomorrow i will post experience just in case of somebody else need it
PS: what is the validity of the transportation letters?
Thanks
 
Hi tarmac727,

I heard that the letter is validity is until second birth of the baby. If you use once then we can't re-use it.

hello, yesterday my wife, doughter and I went to the US Consulate, passed through an interview with the Vice consul here in Home country, they request us some documents and copies of them like GC, passport, birth cretificate, country exit and entries form etc,then they said that is ok and prepare the baby transportation letter , after that they ask us if we are going to stay in USA definitely, and also told us that is almost sure that we may be subject to harassed at the POE since we are out of US for 6 months and 10 days, thus we are afraid now, the longstay here is due to my wife was indicated to be in bed rest for almos 4 months due to her pregnancy, we have medical certificates just in case, and this is our 2 long trip to our country in a year, the first was just to wrap our lives here and this one for the pregnancy,
please we need advices to be prepared at immigration.
tks
 
Thanks Tarmac for update.

I guess if you are outside US for more then 1 year you need reentry permit. I though 6 months is okay.

Did they gave you the baby transportation on the same day? Is there a fee for the letter? If so, how much is it?

Please keep update it after you entered at POE.

Thanks

Actually is no more than 6 and half month outside US but you never know, the transportation letter usually is given the same day, that is way you should aks for an interview 5 day before travel back to US, there is no fee for such letter, and probably we will be flying back on saturday, so may be next week i will post experience at POE.
Regards
 
Thanks Tarmac update.

I am planning to come back in 6 months 1 day. Do you think it will be problem?

How many days you are outside US in this year?

Please post your experience at the POE. This will be very useful. What is your POE?

Thank you very much.
