Thanks for sharing I have been looking for this.

Good stuff. I just submitted my concern about DACA & EWIs. Since DACA recipients over the age of 18 are EWIs and under current laws they will trigger the bar & will be deny entry even with advance parole. So why offer advance parole if is useless to DACA recipients?.

I agree with this:

“I do not believe that DACA approved individuals, or anyone else, should have to show exceptional & compelling reasons for travel.”

Given that many DACA recipients would have been unable to visit family members abroad for the duration of time spent in the U.S., limiting the humanitarian grounds of eligibility to medical necessity and to a family member’s serious illness or death is disappointing indeed.

Thanks for posting this Ale. Rawf I also agree with that. I haven't seen one of my siblings in almost 9 years and having to wait until something serious happens just makes it almost not worth it.

Posted this in another thread. Someone claims to have traveled to Mexico and back with AP.

I just wanted to write to share my experience through Advance parole. I applied for DACA on August 16, received my card by September and SSN/Drivers license within a two weeks of getting it. I applied for AP on October 25 and received my approval by November 24th. I traveled right away since they only gave me till December 22nd. Came back December 14th with no issues. I knew it was a huge risk but I was willing to take it. My grandmother is ill and her health is quickly deterioration. I am EWI and married to a US citizen.

We went in bus and came through laredo. I was so scared I thought I was going to be sick . There are agents waiting for you when you get off the bus and they ask to see your documentation. I showed them the AP form along with the approval letter from Deferred action and my passport but noone was interested in my passport just teh letter that needed to be stamped. They told me to be sure and get it stamped. Had to go to another line were they check your documents again and he actually called someone over to ask about the form, once the other guy got there he told him to just admit me and he escorted me over to a small office and hand the papers to another agent who told me to have a seat. It about 15 minutes before they callled me in. Once they took me in he took my finger prints and was asking me where I live and if I worked, it didn't feel like I was being interrogated more like a conversation. After a few minutes I saw my picture pop up on the screen with some info. He said OK you can go outside while I get this stamped. I went outside and he came out after about 10 minutes, handed me the AP paper along with a small form I-94 and he said this was my ID while in the US and that if I was questioned to show that as my ID

Yes that's possible because of the arabelly case. So he will be able to aos in the USA. You see in the I-94 under the purpose section it says AOS. If you are married, this is a great limited window/loop hole that you'll be able to AOS without the need of a waiver or visa proccess & in the USA. As for other daca recipients this is not a possibility.

[Erik 5]

DACA recipients that can benefit from Advance Parole & able to AOS until DHS & USCIS clarifies it:

- If you're 18 years old & below

- Married to an US Citizen

How & Why?

* Reason to travel abroad (Education,Work,Humanitarian)

* Have an I-130 approved before departing under AP.

* Able to AOS because of the arabelly case.

* Children under 18 do not accrue Unlawful presence.
