Legal Question in Immigration Law in Texas

My spouse has applied for me in F2A category and it is under process (NVC says no visa is available now). If she applies for a I-131 and come back to her home country will it effect my VISA processing?

If your wife is a U.S. Legal Permanent Resident, then she only needs to apply for a Re-entry Permit (Form I-131) if she will be outside the country for 6 months or more.

Your wife applying for a Re-entry permit should not affect your I-130 petition.
