Advance Parole Question.. Help me...Please..

[GCSeekerInd]

Hi All,

I have hopefully a very simple question. Can somebody please respond !!!

I am trying to apply for AP and I understand you need to send a coevering letter mentioning your employment details. The draft format of the cover letter is as follows:

Dear Sir,

This is a request for Advance parole Authorization.

I am an applicant for Lawful Permanent Resident status and am currently employed as (.....) with(.......).I would like to travel abroad on(>>> ) and will vist (.....).. etc.
etc.....
etc......

In the above specified format is it necessary to mention the employment details??

I am laid off and am on lookout for new job would not like to mention that I am employed with ..... in the AP covering letter. Is this OK??Or is that the format specified by INS?

Can somebody please help.Please........

Thanks in advance.

cover letter

We did not specify any employment details in the cover letter when we applied for my wife's Advanced Parole last year. She did get an RFE asking for a copy of a copy of my (principal applicant's) I-140 approval.

The following is the format we used for the cover letter. This was the same format used by my attorney when she applied for my AP along with I-485 application.

Hope this helps......
