Traveling with Advance Parole while on AOS

[SW2018]

Hi,

I came to the US on B2 visa then applied for Adjustment of Status after getting married with my American husband. I wasn't overstayed at the time I applied for the green card but now I have been overstayed for 2 months. I received an EAD and Advance Parole already.
I plan to go back to my home country to visit my family for 2 weeks before I come back here and start my job. Is there any risk to travel with Advance Parole? Anyone has experiences recently?

Thank you

It should be fine.

Just a note that you technically haven't "overstayed" anything. Once you apply for Adjustment of Status, the previous date that you would have had to leave the US on no longer applies. You're in limbo and perfectly legal to remain in the US until a decision on your application has been made.

If USCIS didn't want people to use AP, they wouldn't issue it to anyone. Why do people get so worried about this?? If you're that paranoid, then don't leave the US at all. You haven't overstayed, btw. Your status is now "authorized stay" while AoS is pending.

Our situation is same and I travel on my Advance parol April with my husband. Everything went fine. One advice though. Do not sign in on the machine as B2. take your documents to the IO at the airport and let him know it?s your first time traveling on the document. Safe travel and enjoy!

Thank you so much. I just came back from the trip and had no problem getting in at all
