I'm currently preparing to file the I-485 AOS, I-765 EAD, I-131 advanced parole document for my former K1 fiancee/now wife. My question is this: My wife is from Canada, and wants to visit her folks for Christmas and New Year's. She also wants the option to visit in the summer as well. Is it possible to get a parole document for both trips on one document? The christmas trip is set in stone, but the summer trip is an unspecified date. Would USCIS raise a fuss, since she doesn't have her green card yet? Thanks for any help you can provide on this matter.

If you get your butt in gear you might already have the GC by Christmas. ;) You should definitely have it by next summer. We filed in mid-January, had GC first week of May.

Yes - it is possible to use the AP document for multiple trips - it would have this designated on it (i.e., multiple entry, single entry). It wouldn't surprise me if they typically put 'multiple entry' on most all AP's - but I guess it comes down to what you checked off on the I-131.

FYI - When you receive AP - you get two documents, upon re-entry you'll show both to the CBP - he/she will keep one and stamp the other for you to keep. I believe on multiple-use document, he/she will just make a copy of the one you have.
