Case Approved While Abroad
Finally!
My case has been completed!
The problem is that I came to Korea on vacation for a week with my family using my L1 visa, and I am scheduled to return on Friday.
However, my case was approved yesterday.
In this situation, what should I do?🤣🤣

Following this post for more update.
You might be stuck since your L1 status is no longer valid. Let me know if you are able to make it back on Friday.
I have an H-1B visa and I have an upcoming trip abroad in November. Also worried I might get approved if I travel out

You might have to file for an immigrant visa at a US embassy. But correct me if am wrong

best to consult lawyers in this case.

@june lee any update on your situation? I am really vested because I might be in this situation in future

H-1B is a dual intent visa, so you can technically travel while your AOS is pending if you have a valid stamp. However, if your AOS gets approved while you’re outside the U.S., you may face issues re-entering, since your status will have changed. Entry is still at the discretion of the CBP officer, so there’s always a slight risk

I was admitted upon entry without any special mention and was approved as usual with my L1 visa.
Although my lawyer told me to prepare the I-485 notice document, I found that it was not necessary.😊

Welcome back and glad you had no issues. Although I have a valid H-1B stamp, I applied for I-131 just incase. Hoping the parole gets approved before my trip
