Advance Parole duration
I just checked the dates on my AP & it’s valid for 18 months instead 1 year. I haven’t heard of anybody receiving an 18-month AP which is not combo with EAD.
Can you share your experience pls?
God bless ✨

@Ann B omg that’s amazing!! did you get it before or after VAWA/GC approval?

bro where did you heard that it is for 1 year? it was 5 years before and later this administration reduced it to 18 months. do not float rumors of 1 year. it was never 1 year

@G S i’ve heard from multiple people about the 1 year validity, I thought mine would’ve been 1 year as well so it’s definitely real. thanks for your comment

whoever told you this is not even closer to immigration news at all. this administration changed this to 18 months as soon as they got into office. As far as my knowledge of 12 years it was 2 years and then Biden administration change it to 5 years in 2022 or 2023.

I did at the 12 month they they responded “We reviewed your inquiry and are unable to respond at this time” at this point it doesn’t matter I don’t have to travel due to the new laws
