Well after passing through bouts of insanity,my Advanced parole has been approved i received it today and my Ead was approved on the 04-04-06.Total time wait for my Ead to be approved 58 days .Now i guess i just have to wait for it in the mail.Also i have a question about advanced parole.My us visa has expired this past month.Does it hurt me or matter if i travel? Or is it not wise to travel without having one even though i have Ap can anyone give me some info.
 
From what I have read in these forums, make sure you have got your AP in your hands before you travel. Don't travel without it!
Once you've got it, you're good to go, even without a current visa. You should have your passport, too though. And I think you need to have it stamped, too.

Hope this helps. :)

Thank you very much for the information .I was getting confused all over again worrying about my visa lol.Im glad to know that my visa has nothing to do with it thanks.
 
Oh, I forgot something important:

You should not travel if you have overstayed your visa for more than 180 days!! Even if you have an AP.
Please read here:
http://uscis.gov/graphics/publicaffairs/newsrels/CISTravelAdvisory.pdf
The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 stipulates that immigrants who depart the United States after being unlawfully present in the United States for certain periods can be barred from admission to lawful permanent resident status, even if they have obtained Advance Parole. Those immigrants who have been unlawfully present in the United States for more than 180 days, but less than one year are inadmissible for three years; those who have been unlawfully present for a year or more are inadmissible for 10 years. Immigrants, who are unlawfully present, depart the U.S. and subsequently re-enter under a grant of parole, may nevertheless be ineligible to adjust their status.
USCIS urges all immigrants with pending applications for adjustment of status to consult its National Customer Service Center at 1-800-375-5283, uscis.gov, an immigration attorney, or an immigration assistance organization accredited by the Board of Immigration Appeals before making any travel plans.
