Form I-131 for Medical Travel

Having a medical condition doesn't prevent you from applying for a travel document (Form I-131), but understanding the form's purpose is key.

What is Form I-131 For?

This form is used by green card holders, refugees, and asylees to get a travel document for temporary travel outside the US. It allows them to re-enter without a new visa (for green card holders) or to travel abroad and return (for refugees and asylees).

Can it Help with Medical Travel?

Yes! If your medical condition requires treatment abroad, you might be eligible for a travel document using Form I-131.

What Documents Do I Need?

  • Proof of your medical condition: Medical records, doctor's letters explaining your need for travel.

  • Documentation of medical appointments or treatments abroad.

  • Any other evidence supporting your medical travel request.

Important Note:

USCIS will review your application and decide based on your situation and eligibility criteria. Approval is not guaranteed.
