while the asylum is open you traveled outside the country bro.

Glory be to almighty God

@Will Alex yes my lawyer told me there shouldnt be an issue since i have the advance parole on my marriage case

so that means with parole you could go to any country of your choice like Dubai and come back

@damilola i actually went to dubai and london and came back fine

great!!!

wow so can i go see my brother in london?

thank you for sharing your experience

@Mashpeace i would ask a lawyer since each case is different but for me it was very easy!

Ohk , so the travel depends on ur case ?

yeah in the sense that if you were here illegally at one point or have a record or anything then that might jeopardize it, but otherwise i think is fine

It's not from case to case, the minute you get advance parole you can travel.

yeah but i referenced the above because lawyers advise not to if you were illegal or have had a criminal record, otherwise you are good to go

I'm telling you from personal experience, you will scare people who were illegal at one point and won't use there advance parole. Advance parole is given for a reason.

that’s fine i just dont feel comfortable telling another person to go which is why i said ask your lawyer. i just shared my experience to help others who are as worried as i was before traveling. my post is not scaring anyone at all, calm down

Then it's better not to tell anything. I am calm, but I was in that situation and I'm telling you your comment can be scary to people who were illegall at some point.

@T A, it’s better that people know and be cautious and do their own research than to just go and get stuck when coming back. i agree with G K comment that they should consult a lawyer. if you’ve done criminal activity or have been illegal, there is a chance they won’t let you come in. so always better to be on the conservative side and consult with a lawyer for these things

is Dubai or London your home country??? did you travel to your home country with an assylum ?

@waiting… yes that’s all i meant is it’s always better to check than regret. i checked with 2 lawyers and both told me im good to go :)

@mercy no neither is my home country. i cant go back to my country on asylum

Okk… that’s good atleast you could travel somewhere without a hassle

how did you get U.K visa?

@M A A i applied back in December here in NYC and sent my documents, got the visa approved within 2-3 weeks.

you applied uk with ur advance parole ? or u already have ur greencard

I applied to the UK for a tourist visa and traveled on my advance parole. they approved me after providing my employment letter/bank statement/marriage certificate etc

@G K, wow! no invitation letter?

nope i just put the reason that i wanna visit for a few days with my spouse (US citizen) and they gave me a 6 month tourist visa :)

wow

so u went for biometrics and all that ?

yeah i did biometrics then i mailed my documents to the center here in NY (including my passport). 2-3 weeks later they sent me back my passport with the visa. there was no interview

Ohk

so does it mean u can only travel with advance parole with another country visa ? don’t get it

so the visa is to enter the UK and the advance parole is to return back to the US. so yes you need your passport, the visa, and the advance parole to go and come back

Ohk got it now

well nice for the info G K. my own fear and concern is, what about someone that had overstayed before he applied for i485 through Vawa? although I think once I get it, I will prefer to just apply to Canada and also UK which seems saver God forbids anything…. any one here or knows anyone that could ve such notion here???

i just showed an unpaid reservation at a hotel (no flight tickets)

i provided an employment letter/paystub just to prove that i have steady income and job here so they dont think im moving there

thanks for letting us us that everything went just fine with your travel. I’m going to South America next week and only have my parole and I’m kinda nervous but hopefully they will let me in and back again.🙏🏽

did you travel with your home country passport or with travel document

passport + advance parole. cant just use the advance parole

hmm i think i found an appt within 2-3 weeks in December

@April 2021 filler SLC thought to ask if you did travel and how was your experience? thanks

@G K bro i have advance parole and with indian passport. can i go with advance parole for 2 months no any issues please give me advise
