Biometrics for I-131 re-entry & I-90 GC replacement (within 90 days/3 months)

[abum 324]

Hi all.

 

I have some questions here.

 

Currently I am out of the USA - but will be in USA within 1 month. The expected duration of stay would be exactly 3 months.

 

Within that 3 months, i would like to apply the following documents:

 

1. Green Card replacement I-90 for myself (my GC is MIA - tracking says it is delivered but no where to be seen - USCIS helpline said if it is said as Delivered, nothing else they can do)

2. Green card replacement I-90 for my toddler (no biometric - and no need to come in-person) [same case as mine]

3. Re-entry permit I-131 for myself

4. Re-entry permit I-131  for my toddler  (no biometric - and no need to come in-person)

 

Re-entry permits are to be delivered to the US embassy in Malaysia. 

 

My toddler and I both have a valid I 551 stamp on our passports (but will expire end of this year).

 

Questions:

1. From my readings, i've come to understand that my toddler would not need to have his biometric taken. Can other verify this as well?

a. therefore i would not need to pay for biometrics in both I-90 and I-131 right?

b. i do not need to bring him to any of  the interviews right?

 

2. Would 3 months be enough for me to reach to the point of the biometric to be taken? 

 

3. If the answer for No 2 is NO, then what are my options? I am not sure if i can prolong my stay in the USA longer than 3 months as it is putting a lot of strain on me financially. (changing flight would cost a lot of money too).

 

I plan to be back in the USA for good maybe middle of next year (a huge maybe there - hence i need to have the re-entry permit in place).
