Can somebody tell me what is next? Do I receive the actual document with the approval or what? How long before I receive the AP document? :)
 
Thank you. This is what I need the most really, I can wait a month for EAD and whatever it takes for the GC. But I really need to travel in July.

So what does it mean? will I receive the AP anytime soon?
 
Another quick question for the people who have already traveled on AP.

Do I surrender my I-94 (from the last time I came to the US / the one I referred to in my AOS case) or do I keep it with me?

Thanks,

Logically speaking I think you have to surrender your I-94 card since you are still an "Alien". Gosh I hate that term. But I am not sure.

I think your AP is in the mail. It should be the document being mailed to you (we find out by the end of the week) :)

I just got another LUD on my I-131 today... maybe the mailed the approval notice and the documents separately? or something.

I have heard I will need the I-94 during my interview though. So I do not know if I need to keep with or surrender it...

I will be issued a new I-94 with parole when I come back into the US though... but do I need to keep the original I-94 that was issued to me and I put in the petition for AOS or not?

If I were you I'd make a copy of the I-94 surrender it when you leave (as they use it to track you when you come back). I have heard of people getting into trouble for failure to submit I-94 when leaving.

The most important thing is the number thats on it. I think your AP should have a new way of tracking your travels. My guess. & yes I guess a lot. So take it with a pinch of salt.

good for you!
did you got your FP done before the AP approval?
 
Yes, my fingerprints were done May 25, the AP was approved June 19.

Also, I checked the option: I am applying for an advance parole document to allow me to return to the United States after temporary foreign travel.

I did not write a reason anywhere. There is no need for it. I did put it the date for my trip as July 15th.
 
I-131 Approved.

Just now received an email thats identical to Preatorian's. AP is approved.

1 down 3 to go. :cool:
 
There is not a field in the I-131 that asks "what is the reason for your advance parole?"... so the question itself is ridiculous :p

Like I said, all you do is check the corresponding box. (see my post above).

Congrats mpanati! :)
 
thanks Praetorian :).

I am still not sure what those LUDs are. My wife's I-485 and i-765 had 4 LUDs in 5 days 6/6, 6/7, 6/8 and 6/10. Guess they are doing something. If only we can find what that 'something' is :confused:

Anyway, goodluck to all who are waiting at different stages. :)

Hi again....

For Part 1. A# Do i put the number that came in my I-485 letter?
 
PraetorianXI said:
errr... I am guessing you are filing for an I-131? in that case yes... that is your new and shiny alien number forever.

Btw If you look at I-131 under part 4 There is a question

"Purpose of trip" & list countries you are planing to visit. So based on that what do I put in there what did you guys put in there?
 
On page 9 of the I-131...

Right after Part 3. Question 3.

There is one instruction in bold that says:

If you are applying for an Advance Parole Document, skip to Part 7.

That means, when asking for advance parole. Which is what we are all doing. WE DO NOT PROVIDE A PURPOSE FOR TRIP.

Just skip to Part 7. :)
 
Yes you are right.... hmmm good I will send it out tomorrow. One more question If I get approved for advanced parole doc is that like a temporary visa that the immigration officer checks at the airport when entering the United States? And what do I put for "Class of addmision"

Thanks for your help.
