parole. Persons who do not have a valid H, K, L, or V visa stamp, or valid Advance Parole, cannot depart the United States prior to the adjudication of their Advance Parole application.
A request for parole is made on Form I-131. Denied either because of a prior overstay, unauthorized employment, illegal entry (such as DACA where they receive advance parole) or anything else. Will I be denied re-entry with advance parole? The Adjudicators Field Manual lists several classes of persons who are eligible to apply for advance parole. Some people and lawyers think the risk is very high, which is demonstrably wrong. This fear must come from SOMEWHERE or it is totally irrational. Our fears are not because we heard stories about people being denied entry, but because of the uncertainty of the current immigration climate. Customs and Border Patrol may deny entry for many reasons. Notably, parole is not considered an “admission,” and therefore — in theory — someone reentering the country on parole should not be subject to grounds of inadmissibility.If you have committed or been convicted of a crime of inadmissibility in the United States, you should have serious concerns about traveling abroad and attempting to re-enter. It's easy!Always struck me was that the bigger issue is being paroled in when you use AP rather than admitted.____________________________________________________________________________________________________Parole implies you have committed a crime or something, for which you are being paroled.My husband and I have made the decision not to travel with AP. There are a lot of people scared to travel in this particular situation, but try as I might I cannot even find one negative situation like this online from 2014 or afterwards. The denials do not distinguish between applicants who need the pending AP to travel and those who have either a qualifying visa or an already valid advance parole document. No. When advance parole is granted, USCIS will issue the person a Form I-512.Parole is authorization by the Department of Homeland Security for a person to temporarily enter the United States for urgent humanitarian reasons or where it brings a significant public benefit.
Parole. Which is why I'm curious what is underlying that.The AP allows someone to travel, and CBP are very familiar with it and what benefits accompany it.I know there are a lot of people on this forum who have been active readers and participants here for many months or even years.There are a lot of people scared to travel in this particular situation, but try as I might I cannot even find one negative situation like this online from 2014 or afterwards. To be kept in mind, Advance parole only authorizes parole and permission to arrive at a US port of entry, not a guarantee of entry.

Again it's been this way for years and years. Over 40 DACA recipients from across the states joined us in Washington, D.C. from Nov. 9-15, 2019 to advocate for DACA and the restoration of Advance Parole. This fear must come from SOMEWHERE or it is totally irrational. If there are, would be good to assess and learn from. Advance Parole expires a year after approval, therefore the re-entry privileges will no longer be valid upon its expiration. Not too long ago people were being detained even with a Green Card much less AP.Why people are so 'desperate' to immediately go home and travel after just having dealt with the long wait to get here in the first place is beyond me; but regardless, if you have AP, then you're fine. If there are, would be good to assess and learn from. A lot of people in this situation are scared to travel, and STILL a lot of lawyers tell their clients not to travel on advance parole, or even to apply for advance parole, because of this fear.
