FAQs

Q.  After my fiancé and I marry, what do I have to do to take her out of the country on our honeymoon? How long after we are married can we leave and return to the US?

A.  After you get married, you have to apply for her Green Card (aka Permanent Residence, Adjustment of Status). At this time, you must apply for her Advance Parole (USCIS Forms I-131). It takes approx 90 days to receive the Advance Parole Re-Entry Permit after filing. Your fiancé must have this before she leaves the US for foreign travel and must present it to re-enter the US. If your fiancé leaves the US without the Advance Parole Re-Entry Permit, she may be denied entry and the Green Card petition may be cancelled.
