AP Question.

I am trying to send the AP application over this weekend and got stuck as what to put in box #3 which asks you "Class of Admission". What exactly is it? Is it shows the status at last admission? If I am on EAD after expiring H!, what should I write there?

Any help is really appreciated. Thanks guys.
 
Check immigration-law.com--> breaking news.

I guess you need to put H1, F1, L1 or whatever visa you used to enter US.

You should put 'manner of last entry' in to US, if you used H1B, then it is 'H1B', if you used AP, then it is 'Parolee'.
 
Thanks Guys..

From www.immigration-law.com breaking news section:

02/14/2004: New Advance Parole Application Form, I-131, and "Class of Admission" Question

Sometimes, when the government makes a change in the form, they publish it without detailed instructions. In the new form, the government added a new item in the form in Part 1, "Class of Admission." Some people enter the U.S. in one type of nonimmigrant classification and change the status to another type of nonimmigrant classification. For instance, from F-1 to H-1B, B-2 to F-1, etc. Which one people should write in? According to the immigration authorities, it is the "current" nonimmigrant classification. Thus, those who changed his/her nonimmigrant status should write the new nonimmigrant visa class in this item of the I-131 form.
It appears that this question is asked to determine whether the applicant is ineligible for I-131. In the Advance Parole context, the applicant is ineligible if he/she was or is in a J-1 exchange visitor status being subject to two-year foreign residency requirement or he/she is in exclusion, deportation, removal or recission proceedings.

So It looks like since I entered as an H1 and now I am in AOS, I should put AOS. Is my interpretation correct?
 
It is not your current status- but the status under you were admitted to US- when you entered last time. If you used H1- H1, if you used AP- pending AOS.
