Here is my situation.
I'm planning to travel on AP that will expire when I'm out of the country.
I have applied for another AP on July 20th, 2006 (VSC). My current AP expires Oct 3rd week. I'm planning to leave Oct 2nd week and return Nov 2nd week. I have booked non-refundable tickets hoping I will get AP before my travel date. (My last EAD & AP was approved in 10 days! This time only EAD got approved quickly, though I have applied for both together.)
But if the new one doesn't get approved before my travel date, can I still leave under the hope it will get approved before I come back (or worst case, I can extend my stay a little bit until it is approved) and use the new AP to reenter that my friend will mail it to me once it is approved?
Thanks very much in advance!
