Travel Plan in May 2018 - Needing Advice

[emilydao1996]

Hello,

I have had my combo card (EAD + AP) since October 2017 and I am planning a trip back to my country in May 2018. Here is my timeline (Montgomery, AL local office):

I-485, I-765, I-131 Received 07/10/2017

Request for Initial Evidence 08/02/2017

Biometrics 08/09/2017

Initial Evidence Received 09/05/2017

I-765, I-131 Approved 10/05/2017 (Combo Card Received in 10/2017)

Case status has been ready to schedule an interview (I-485) from 09/13/2017. Long processing time inquiry was placed on 02/20/2018. As of now (03/26/2018), still waiting for inquiry response and interview date.

I do not know if my interview date is coming up in May or not. Should I travel on AP in May 2018? I need your advice!

Thank you.

i guess it depends on how long you are intending to travel?
If its just a week or 2 it shouldnt be an issue.
Perhaps you can sign up for USPS informed delivery so you know if a letter is coming and someone could check your mail for you to let you know the contents?
Worst case scenario you have to reschedule your flights.

Thanks! I may travel in 3 weeks, hope it would not cause any issues. I have also already signed up for USPS Informed Delivery, so I hope the process would go smoothly.
