Urgent Help- Reentry In Usa

[Sunnyg2020]

All,

I need your help. I'm planning to travel to New Zealand and coming back from New Zealand via Honolulu, Hawaii. I have EAD, Advance parole and I have finished the FP also. Is any one aware of Hawaii can be a port of entry? Also, how safe and easy will be to re enter using my advance parole from Hawaii?

Please let me know a.s.a.p,

Thanks,
Sunny

Hawaii is one of the United States. Your immigration check would be done at Hawaii, and then flying from Hawaii to mainland USA should not even need a passport (as long as you have any other official photo-id).

My 2 cents.

Please also advice. i was just curious to know how would the immigration treat my case - as this would be my first time entering US on Advance Parole ( my last entry was on F1 4 year back) -- and given that I would be enetering Hawaii and vacationing in Hawaii for 2 weeks before coming back to work in dallas.

As long as you have a valid AP and don't have any criminal / adverse record, you should be fine. Its all a part of life to go for vacation and Hawai is a nice place to visit as well. Just be prepared with documents, like H1 approval notice, or I20 showing you maintained your status while in US. Also they will ask about your employer so a letter would be great. I don't think there would be any problem. Take it easy.
