Travel

[srj 1]

I am wondering about if my Fiancee will be able to travel back to China shortly after we are married. I have heard there is a two year waiting period. She has heard three years. With an elderly Grandmother, it would be comforting to know she would be able to visit. Thanks

When she has her green card she can travel. After marriage you file AOS as soon as possible.

Yes, as soon as she gets her green card she can visit.

My friend (came with K-1) went back to home country for a visit a year after arriving so I dont think there's a waiting period.

There is no waiting period per se. Once you marry (your profile notes K-1), you want to file for AOS asap. You should also file for EAD and more importantly AP-advance parole. AP would be approved in 2-3 months after filing, your new spouse can then travel while the GC is still in process

I am careful and had no rush to travel, we waited till our GC was in hand.

We received EAD/AP combo card as has been described. However, to be on the safe side, we waited until we had the 2-year GC until my wife traveled back to settle important business affairs.
