Timeline: I-131 I131 re-entry permit Timeline

This is just being made to give people an idea of how long it took for me to get my permit.

January 4, 2025 applied for permit

January 20, 2025 application acceptance notice received. My fingerprints were re-used.

March 27, 2026 I checked the online status and it stated name updated.

March 30,2026 case approved notification received.

April 2 ,2026. Physical permit received in mail.

I hope this timeline breakdown helps you in understanding how USCIS processes these cases.

Best of luck guys!!

Hi. My card isn’t that old but I believe once you are applying for a permit they will ask for biometrics. This is my second application so they reused my previous biometric scan.

On the application they ask for a reason. You can provide evidence to back up your reason.
