I (US citizen) currently work on a military instillation in South Korea a Dept Of Def contractor. My wife(Conditional Green-card holder) lives here with me.

My main question is:

Does the USFK Form 700-19A-R-E count as Government orders?

700-19A-R-E is "Invited Contractor and Technical Representative Personnel Data Report" and is the closest thing i can find to government orders that i have. I work for a U.S. Company. URS Federal Support Services Inc.

I should also mention that i am under SOFA(Stats of Forces Agreement) Status

I am finding it difficult to find this information out.

If it is, i can file from here no problems.

My next concern the N-470.

Can my wife apply for this under the "On behalf of the U.S. Government" seeing as she is not the one who is working but i am. She is listed on my 700-19A-R-E as my dependent.

Finally my last question is about the re-entry permit. My wife currently has a re-entry permit that expires when her green card does. Will she be able to remain in Korea with and file for yet another re-entry permit once she gets her 10 year green card?

Any info would be great! Thanks in advance!
