Urgent!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys
Have any one travel outside the country, before AP was approved and come back after you receive new AP.
Here is my spouse case. We applied on AP renewal on Sept 4th, issue a RFE(marriage cert) on Nov 4th, satisfied on Nov 11th, Still waiting for approval. Her grand mother is sick and she have to go to India, Local INS will not give emergency AP, as CSC has already issue a RFE(Kinda stupid, but...) CSC can't expedite the process as grand mother is not immediate relative and it seems they have back logs in their mailing room and officer has not yet received the RFE document, which was sent by overnight mail(This are words of duty officer in CSC).
As this is the emergency scenario, I was THINKING what we will leave outside the country with current AP and I will back before our first AP expires and once I get her new AP, I will send it to India, so that she can come back.
So my question is Has any one took the risk of leaving the country and then coming back with approved AP, which will be mail to them in India? Do they cross verify at POE, when you left the country and when was your AP approved? Or do they add a entry some where while leaving outside the country that you have a AP plus the expiry date? Is there a huge risk that my spouse will not allow to enter?
Ur inputs will be appreciate.

Akish,

My case is different but just wanted to share with you.

My AP visa was valid but I did not use while leaving the country b'cos of my valid H-1 and was able to enter with out any problem.

I am verifying my parole visa now and in that I have only the file number (Alien or A# number) and there is no tracking number or code like in visa so I guess they might not go to the extent of seeing if it was an old AP or a new one b'cos it takes a long time at the POE.

I guess you could go ahead as planned and atleast you can be back before AP expires and can take care if god forbid things go wrong.

Good Luck

Last week my wife went to India on AP. She mentioned to me that no one has asked for any documents or scanned any documents while going back.

I can think only a way that INS would know the date she left US is by verifying I-94 Submission at the Airline counter.

If it is a real emergency, you can still try to contact local INS office to get one day parole.

Good luck !!
