Hello vj members, I need help or some info any reply is so much appreciated. We sent my I-751 and got my NOA already I am now waiting for my bio appointment schedule, my husband is leaving tomorrow to the Philippines because we are buying a property, he can't purchase the land without me because he is not from the Philippines so I need to be there for that. My questions would be.: is there a faster way to leave the US , before bio appt? Will I need to get an info pass if I leave before i get my biometrics letter appointment? I really need some info, so vj members please help me. Thank you!

BTW my green card will not expire until May 18th, and I am not planning to stay over in the Philippines that long, if I can leave early and don't have to wait for my biometrics appointment I should be back in the US before my green card expire, I will be buying a round trip ticket if I am allowed to leave. Sorry it's quite long. Thank you again.

Our bio appointment is for one month after the NOA1. The letter arrived about 5 days after teh NOA1. Yours should be in that time frame. You have two choices 1) leave the US and return in time to make it to the bio appointment, or 2) reschedule the bio appointment. The bio appointment is for the ROC petition. It has no bearing on your current GC. You have an extension letter that makes your current GC valid for an additional year. You can travel on the expired GC and the extension letter. Your concern now is should you reschedule your bio appointment, your ROC may be delayed. You can see if you can do a walk in if you know you will be out of the country when your appointment is scheduled. My guess is you can go to the PI and conduct your business and return in a couple of weeks and be fine.

Good luck,

Dave

Try going your local office to get your Bio-metrics done with your NOA and Green Card. If you are lucky, they may agree and that will help you.

I just got my bio appointment today, and I will go tomorrow to my local office and see if I can do it early or walk in. They scheduled me for March 29th.Do they normally allow walk ins? Wish me luck. :)

With Biometric letter in hand it is easier to get a walk-in acceptance - it depends on the rush, so go as early as possible and your chances of acceptance are high - All the best.
