maybe you should check with your lawyer to confirm if you are in removal proceeding. I sure if you were in removal USCIS wouldn’t have approve your I-131 application. I can be corrected if am wrong
Steph RomanoNov 7, 2023
I don’t think you should even think about leaving the country till you terminate the removal, focus on dismissing that please, sadly I have friends that were not able to return. Don’t do it , it’s not worth the risk.

@Stephania Romano I agree with you . if one is on removal and you leave the country, you automatically deport yourself and you will not be able to return . am in the same situation waiting for my vawa decisions to dismiss my removal. it’s just a long journey

long story short: I used the Advance parole based pending Adjustment of status/ VAWA concurrent filing I-360, I-485, I-131 & I-765. ( I went to Canada by car for only 2 days) I am not longer in removal proceedings, I was granted withholding of removal many years ago. I’ve heard you cannot travel even with AP. thank God I did not have any problem coming back home, I was paroled for 1 year. I first entered to usa without inspection (EWI) and never left until now with Advace paroled.—— I am so thankful that I did not have issues entering. Now my question is: did I lose my Withholding of removal protection by traveling on AP? Does that help now that I have a lawful entry? ( I already sent this questions to my lawyer but I am still waiting for an answer) Thank you all for your input!

@PG Jav … did you went to Canada using a visa or perhaps just the AP and were you interrogated by the Canada immigration officers of why not having a visa ?? with your removal proceedings, were you ever given a court date or you never had a court? if you did had a court date? was your case dismissed by the immigration judge? your response will be highly appreciated.

@ال وقت Canada has a visa exemption to my nationality. I used my passport and the Advance parole combo card .- entering canada I was ask for my status in the usa and I told the officer that I have advance parole. He physical reviewed the sheets on my passport but of course I did not have any stamp yet. I told the officer that was the first time using it and that until I came back to usa they (CBP) will stamp it. He was like “ I never seen anything like that” then told me how are you going to come back to usa? (at that moment I felt like my heart stop beating for a second…) he then ask how long are you going to stay? I told him 1 day., I’ll be back tomorrow. then he said: you are goo to go- I reply thank you. it was really quick maybe like 3 minutes
