Default details...

I have filed for Advance parole the second time, got it approved and the documents in hand in about 4 weeks.

The dates can be tentative, put in a date when you think you might travel, its not hard and fast so guesstimate.

The list of docs to be sent with your AP form are :
· Filled in form I-131
· Check
· 2 Photographs
· Copy of I-485 receipt notice
· Copy of previous approved advance parole document(if any)
· Copy of passport pages
· Copy of drivers license

Hope this was helpful

Thanks everybody for help.

I would have another question:

I don't know what to write on "Class of Admission". When I entered U.S I was on H4 but I got Ead and now I'm on Ead and my husband on H1b.

Could someone tell me please what to write.
Thank you!

And where it's written :"On a seperate sheet of paper, please explain how you qualify for advance parole document"......should I write on a blank sheet of paper that I need to visit my parents....?

Babu Moshay, control your temper. As it is we dont have many non-indians in our group. You are putting off stray non-indians who come here to seek advice. (This guy is from Romania).

Why you will get GC quickly if you have more non-indians? OR
You are trying to be nice to them coz you are insecure of yourself in your subconscious mind? OR
Is it that he yelled at a non-indian which broke your sensitive heart?.

Whats your point?

Would have been better if you stopped at temper. Doesnt matter if its indian or non-indian. Try to treat all people the same in your mind first irrespective of color and culture. Stop selling yourself short.

On a separate piece of paper, this is exactly what I entered:
"Pending adjustment of status petition. Lengthy adjustment and the need to visit family from time to time."

I self filed for AP for my spouse and myself and we got it approved without any problem.

Default AP renewal

Do we really need to attach a copy of the front page of the passport for AP renewal, wouldn't a copy of the DL be sufficient enough?
