US Immigration from Sweden

Hi,

let's update each other here regarding October interview letters. I was DQ's in mid-September and still waiting for my IL.

Does anyone have experience in getting another I131 Reentry Permit after the first one expired? I understand that you can't renew it, but have to apply for a new one.

My permit expires on Nov 24 2022, we applied for it in april 2020, just before the pandemic struck, and had to wait 6 months until we got them.

googling the procedure, it seems that we need to go back to the US, File the I131 together with our old re-entry permits. Go back home and wait for the biometrics appointment.

Attend the biometrics appoinment and hopefully the green passport will be approved

My parents came in to US june 14th and they got their greencards in the mail 1 month later.
Though the card says residents since June 14th this year.

They wanted to go back to Sweden and stay for 32 days to pick up some more of their stuff leaving Dec 14th.
Meaning they will leave on the day where it would have been in US for 6 months. Is this ok?
I'm worried they might be denied entry for some reason. I might jsut be be paranoid but I heard it's best to stay for a while before traveling.

Though 1 month is not thaaat long, considering they are new greencard holders it might be a bit of an issue?
Any advice?
Thank you so much!!!

Hi,

I am trying to understand the police clearance certificate as requested by NVC. I was bron in India and lived till at the age of 24. Curently I am Swedish citizen (from last 5 years) and gave up my India passport. I have the police clearance certificate from Sweden, however since I lived in India , do I need to submit another certificate from India ? I looked at the webiste

travel-.state. gov and foudn that

pecial Seal(s) / Color / Format: All police clearance certificates from regional passport offices have a similar format. The header bears the symbol of India s Central government (three lions), and contains the contact information of the regional office, issuance date, file number, and applicant photograph. It is signed and stamped by the Ministry of External Affairs. Police clearance certificates issued by other authorities vary in format.

Issuing Authority Personnel Title: There is no issuing authority personnel title

Registration Criteria: Varies by authority

Procedure for Obtaining: Varies by authority

Certified Copies Available: Applicants obtain original police clearance certificates from police authorities.

Alternate Documents: There are no alternate documents

Exceptions: None

Comments: Police certificates are only available for Indian nationals and non-Indian nationals currently living in India. Indian police certificates are not available for foreign (non-Indian) nationals applying outside India.

From the comments, it seems that I don't need any police clearance if I don't hold Indian passport. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks for your help in this regard.
