Ah. Well, how long have you been living in Tijuana?

Do you intend to live in the US?

When did you move?

[sandiego1904]

we have been living in tijuana for the last year and are planning on moving back in the next month or so , but we have to submit the application by the 15th of this month it the I-175.

Your wife may have already lost her green card status if she has been living outside the US for more than a year without getting advance permission from the USCIS to do so. A permanent resident of the US must reside in the US and must have intention to do so by having the proper supporting documentation; any extended absences from the US for six months or longer must be documented with a need to be abroad as well as evidence that the intention to reside within the US is still present.
