Travelling

[stan&tanya 0]

My wife will have her K-3 visa issued next week. We will then pursue an AOS when she arrives here. After everything is said and done, and she has her greencard and work permit, can she travel internationally? What restrictions, if any, are there? Thanks.

Here is a site that I have found helpful when traveling with my wife (who is a citizen of the Philippines and a Permanent Resident of the United States).

I am not sure about after the greencard and all but I wouldn't see that there are any problems travelling international then.......With a K-3 visa and a pending AOS though you can travel internationally for the 2 years the K-3 visa is valid for without any problems.

Only restriction is that as a Green Card holder she can not live outside the United States for a indefinite amount of time. I believe she needs to return to US at least once year.

I'm not sure of the exact requirements. Therefore, you may want to investigate it further, if you guys plan on doing this.

I recommend the following reads to anyone who is becoming a Permanent Resident, so you can better understand your rights and responsibilities. Her travel permissions are spelled out in the first link.
