Green Card

[DavidEvgeniya 0]

Hello

If we are accepted and get our green card approval, can we leave the country before we get the card, so long as we have it to re-enter the country with?

We just had our interview a few days ago. We are obviously stressing as they did not tell us at the interview but said we would have to wait 2 weeks.

My wif e may have to go back to Moscow for her studies.

Any help would be great

Having your GC on hand will allow you to travel and re-enter (this is my understanding). You will have to have this card with you at all times or wont be allowed back in to the usa if you dont have it with you. Anyone else here that could better explain this?

They didn't tell you that the AOS was approved? I would wait for any travel then, the risk is too great. If they told you the AOS was approved, you should have asked for a I-551 stamp that could have been used until the GC arrived. If you know you are approved, you could try to make an infopass to get the stamp by explaining your circumstances.
