So happy to hear that . Welcome back home. May I ask which airport did you use?

@Tee Boy JFK

Did you overstay your visa before applying for vawa?

@Jasmine Rahman Yes I over stayed my B1-B2 visa for 4 years and this is my second time traveling back home with my advanced parole.

Which ariport?

Wow that’s amazing that you came back safely into the States. Thank you for sharing.

@Sams91 Waiting JFK

@Ruth jose I stayed 3 weeks

have had any traffic tickets before ? speeding or driver license suspension…?

@Harouna Diakité. No I try my best to stay away from those.

@Stone Mac what country are you from?

@Jesus baby I’m from Jamaica.

did they stop or question you at jfk on return?

@Rushana Austin No question asked at the first officer or secondary and I only spent like 5 minutes and then he handed me my passport, my EAD combo card and said you may go.

ok because I have them separated. the advanced parole letter and my work permit card. I'm just scared to leave, but I really miss my kids tbh I really wanna visit them

@Rushana Austin don’t listen to the negative comments if you don’t have a criminal record don’t afraid to go look for your kids. This is the second time I’m traveling with it and I’m sorry I didn’t start using it as soon as I did get it I waited 15 months before I used it and it was the 2 years I got first because I was reading the comments here. I just prayed about it and decided I am going to use it and I did.

@Rushana Austin It’s a lot of people going into secondary inspection so you don’t have to worry about it.

Mines is a 5yrs, I'll visit my kids and surprise them

I have some traffic tickets paid off, just not sure if they’re part of criminal records

@Harouna Diakité when you are in this country and not a citizen you have to extremely careful.

advance parole is absolutely fine., the white folks use it all the time. I don’t even know how the stereotype started among us Africans. they created to relief the mental stress of long waiting on your green card. it’s very much legal. it’s even worse when you’re waiting for vawa and not use your advance parole. that’s a lot of waiting.

you’re right… just not easy when you be driving doing Uber. u can be unlucky sometimes
