Advance Parole

Hello guys!

Can anyone please share your experience traveling with a dismissed misdemeanor.

I married to US citizen husband in 2014
And sent document for my green card March 2017.
And I got EAD/AP card few days ago.

I really wanna visit my family in my home country.

So I asked my lawyer is that ok to travel with AP. Even I over stayed
for almost 3 years.
She said yes.

But some people on the internet says,
I have to wait till i get green card coz AP case is so random.
They said some people cannot come back to US.

Is this true?

IF YOU HAVE RECEIVED YOUR EAD/AP CARD:

Is the card issue date that is printed on your card the date that your online status switched to 'New Card is being Produced' or the date it switched to 'Card was Mailed to Me', or is it a later date?

I'm wondering because I need to leave the country ASAP and I have been waiting for 100+ days. I am hoping I can leave the country shortly after my status online changes without 'abandoning my application'.

Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,

I'm writing this post as I sit waiting on my plane to my final destination from ATL. I left the USA for 30 days for a study abroad trip. Like many of you, I was very nervous when I approached the customs area. However, coming back in was very straight forward. When I approached the customs officer I made sure to have all of my documents ready and then he just started typing information into the computer. After taking my finger prints and picture he stamped my passport and I was done! I have been reading this forum for a couple of months now and I'm surprised I didn't have to go through a secondary inspection. I think this was because there was hardly any body when I got to the airport. I really hope that everyone considering traveling does it! My brother and I both did it for study abroad purposes and both came back in fine!

Have a question: has anyone travel though Hobby Airport with the Advance Parole? I am from Salvador TPS thinking to travel to Costa Rica with advance parole. Still waiting on my AP.
Thank you all.
Regards.

Hi everyone,
After spending four days in Mexico -- I am back home safely with Advance Parole.
I was less than one year old when my family immigrated to the US back in 1990.
Everything felt so surreal.
Tocar tierra Mexican por primera vez en mas de 25 años es una emocion increible.
If you are thinking of going and are unsure -- I strongly recommend you do it.
If you have a clean record, you have nothing to fear.
I went with my brother, he's a US citizen.

On the way back, I was a bit nervous -- I won't lie.
I just kept thinking to myself whatever happens, happens.
As I approached customs, I handed the lady my passport.
She scanned it.
She took my fingerprints and a photo.
She then pressed a button and told me to wait.
An escort came for me and took into secondary inspection.
The officer told me to take a seat.
I sat there looking around.
No one else was in this room.
I just watched them as they scanned my stuff and I saw them take out the stamp.
Then the officer called me and told me "have a good day sir"
I was in there for less than five minutes.
It went super fast.
They weren't mean, but they weren't friendly either.
This was through the Houston IAH airport.
After I left - I just smiled and laughed.
It was a feeling like "Wow I did it"
And you can too.

I highly encourage anyone with the opportunity to do it, DO IT!
It's worth it.
I hope this serve as a peace of mind to other thinking of going.

I know have a legal entry.

Hello everyone,
I applied for advance parole in April and received my paperworkin May. My reason was because my grandma was very ill and I am the only daughter of her dead son so she really wants to see me. Thank God she has gotten much better and seems to be doing very well .I was given until August 15 to come back so I booked my flight for August 1-9. But this morning I was reading the news that Trump officially cancel the "DAPA" program so now I am scared if he is coming after the DACA as well. Since my flight is so far off and this guy seems to just be causing havoc I no longer want to travel. My attorney has advised me to leave to TJ and visit the relatives I have there instead of travelling to my home town which is Colima. My granma is not in TJ so I am afraid I will have any issue. Has anyone gone to TJ for the weekend and came back? Any experience would help me make up my mind.

Hello All,

I recently got my approval notice and my flight is booked for the 27th of July out of San Francisco to Morelia.

I had two questions and was hoping you guys could help mi out with your experiences.

1) What paperwork should I bring? I know I need my approval documents and my passport but should I have anything else? Birth certificate, DACA Approval, misc documents.

2) Does anyone know what should be done in the of chance they deny reentry? Everyone keeps saying it will be fine but I would love to have a back up plan just in case. Any suggestions on where to start?

Thanks in Advance!

Hello,

I need some input as i have been told i cant get adjustment status unless i travel outside of the U.S and come back, this obviously has to be done with the Advanced Parole. I don't have any sick relatives except for my grandmother but she is able to travel, as a matter fact she is coming here in October. Based on all of you guys experience what did you put as a request for traveling when you applied for Advanced Parole and if any of you are married just getting adjustment of status enough for USCI to give you Advanced Parole.

Any feed back will be appreciated

How long does it take for uscis to receive your paperwork and how long does it take to send your receipt number? Please help and thanks in advance
