HI,
I hope someone redaing this can help me.

I have my 485 pending and have approved Advance Parole. My company needs me to travel internationally , and it may be more than 3 times a year. I only got 3 copies of advance paroles, I was wondering if I can use the same copy more than once, or use photocopies.

Please help.
Thanks
 
I have traveled using the AP several times in a year for 3 years since I had International travel as well. I keep seeing posts where one copy was taken by the Immigration Inspector or the Airline, but I always showed only 1 copy and kept using that over and over again. In my case, they had attached an additional sheet for subsequent stampings once the main sheet was full.
I had the 2nd copy with me, but never showed it to the Inspector and I have never been asked for it either.
 
You should be fine with three copies. It is a very common misconception that you need 1 copy per travel. They actually stamp the same copy on each of travel till they run out of space on it. Subsequently, the use the second copy. So, you should be good for quite a few trips before they run out of space on all three copies.
