Dear All,
If a person has his I-130 approved and is waiting for an immigrant visa number to be available (which takes about 6 years), can he apply for Advance Parole so that he can still leave the US and comes back without any problem.
Would that action be considered as abandoning his application?
I was reading the application for travel document. Under advance parole document it says:
If you are in the United States you may apply for Advance Parole document if you:
* have an adjustment of status application pending which is only being
held in abeyance because a visa number is not immediately available and
you seek to travel abroad for bona fide business or emergent personal
reasons.
* have an adjustment of status application pending for any other reason
and you seek to travel abroad for emergent personal or bona fide
business reasons.
* hold refugee or asylum status and inted to depart temporarily to apply
for a US immigrant visa in Canada.
* seek to travel abroad temporarily for emergent personal or bona fide
business reasons.
Does the first point and/or the second point means he can apply for Advance Parole while waiting or an immigrant visa number to become available?
Any help is greatly appreciated
