Me and my fiancee are getting married on a K-1 fiancee visa this August and after about 4 months of ...(cont)?

Question

being married she wants to fly back to the Czech Republic (her home country) for about 6 months before coming back. What do I need to do or get to make this happen? Thanks for your answers. :D

Answer 1

After you get married she needs to file I-485, I-131 and I-765.  The I-131 is a permit that will allow her to travel outside the USA while the I-485 is being processed.

She MUST file the I-131 BEFORE leaving the USA, preferably 90 days BEFORE her departure.

Answer 2

The first answer is correct in what paperwork to file. Basically she needs to get prior approval to leave. Be aware that if you applied for a green card when she leaves her paperwork goes to the bottom of the stack. You will be back at the end of the line. Also if she stays out 6 months or more she loses her immigration status. So make sure shes only gone for 5 months or less to be safe.
