Advance Parole experience
Hi family. I have a quick question. I traveled with my Advance Parole in April. I came back through JFK. I was directed to the secondary inspection to stamp my passport. When I got there, the officer called me and started asking me some questions like ‘The name of my spouse, date of birth and how we met ? if I was divorce and when? Which I provided her the answers and she was typing on the system and I was like was she actually typing my response on the system? she then finally asked for my address which I gave her and was typing as I was telling her my address. I almost couldn’t remember the answers due to the shock and I didn’t expect those questions at all. My question is what do you guys thinks she could be typing? Are they allowed to ask us those kind of questions? Would what she was typing affects me or has a impact in me using my AP in the future? She stamped my passport and let me go though. Whay are your thoughts about this? Thank you family.
The waiting game is real! 😩
Biometrics done… now just sitting here refreshing my case status every hour, hoping for that interview to be scheduled — or even better, an approval 🙏
This process really tests your patience. Anyone else feeling the anxiety?”

Leave before I-131 biometrics and come back for appointment?
Hey all.
I'm about to be due to file my I-751 to remove conditions. I know once I have receipt confirmation for that, my green card gets automatic extension.
I'm gonna be filing I-131 at the same time because I am leaving for more than a year. The issue is my earliest file date for I-751 is one month before my travel date so it is very unlikely I will get biometrics appointment before leaving. Since my green card will still be valid, can I just fly back for the biometrics appointment? Or is the I-131 considered abandoned if I leave at all, even for a short period?
(Please don't question motives for why I'm trying to get permanent residence if I'm travelling that long, if I didn't want to come back to live here I wouldn't be spending thousands on paperwork.)
