Expedite Advance Parole takes too long

[Xiaomei]

Here is my timeline:

05/03/2018 Case I-485, I-130, I-131, I-765 received;

06/04/2018 Fingerprint Taken;

06/24/2018 Fingerprint Review Was Completed;

09/18/2018 Request for Additional Evidence;

09/24/2018 Received the REF letter;

09/25/2018 Mailed the Evidence ;

10/11/2018 Case is Ready to Be Scheduled for An Interview;

10/25/2018 Phone call ask to expedite my Advance Parole because my mom is sick;

10/29/2018 Got an email said "Your case has been sent for review. You should receive a decision or notice of other action shortly".

I almost called everyday, only get the answer "waiting" because they can't push the officer to review the case faster.

Over 6 months, still didn't got my EAD/AP card. Requested for expedite, already waited 12 days and is still under review. Just don't understand why my case took so long and how they can be so slow.

I make an infopass appointment next Tuesday to see if I can get an emergence AP.

Anyone else has the similar situation?

If your situation is urgent, you can consider leaving without EAD in the hope that when you are ready to come back, your EAD will be ready. But I suggest talking to a lawyer about your situation.

No. If they are not in H or L status, and they leave before their Advance Parole is approved, they automatically abandon their AOS.
