Form I 131 Processing Time

Are you looking to find information on form i 131 processing time? i 131 is a form that is used by someone who has been approved for a green card but have not received it yet. If such a person wants to leave the country they have no document authorizing them to gain reentry into the United States. In such cases you need to apply for travel authorization by filling the form i 131 so you can reenter the United States.

Do not make the mistake of leaving the country without this document. You might assume that you have been approved for a green card so you will be allowed to gain entry but that is not true. If you do not have a travel authorization document on you the border control agent will refuse you the entry and send you back to the country you just came from. You absolutely do not want this to happen. So be sure to get your travel authorization before leaving the country.

Currently it takes about 3 months until you get your travel authorization. However you can request an expedited authorization if you have a special need. There is no guarantee the USCIS will expedite your travel authorization but very often they do it if they see you have an urgent need for it.

So if you have an emergency where you need to travel because you are facing a financial crisis or have a family emergency then you can apply for an expedited approval of your i-131 travel authorization document.

Go to the USCIS website and download the form I 131. Fill it and attach every document asked for. Write a cover letter explaining the rush to get your travel authorization. Mail it along with the fees using a reliable courier like FedEx.
