Hi, I married my Australian husband in CA two weeks ago. I am a US citizen in CA. He has a 5 year multiple entry visa. We had been dating for about two years, him visiting me here mostly. My son and I visited him for a month last December. He came back to visit again on Jan. 28, 2010 and got a six month B2 entry visa. While he was here, his sister in Australia almost died and underwent a Kidney transplant. He said this made him reevaluate what is important to him and that is me and he proposed. We got married on May 15, 2010.

He has been here for 4 months on a B2 visa. I am helping him do all the paperwork for adjustment of status. I have a question regarding Adv. Parole.

When filing out the form, it asks for an exact trip date and I do not have one yet. We want to go back to Australia in December to do another reception there for his family and friends. My main concern is his father is 89 years old and his sister just had a kidney transplant. Either's health could go downhill quickly and I want him to be able to fly home to visit or hopefully not, for a funeral without abandoning his adjutment of status. Is there a way to ask for the ability to leave without a specific date? What is the best strategy for him to get advance parole.

Yes. Just put unknown.

For future reference, all questions regarding your AOS process is in the "AOS from Student, Visitor and Work visas" section because he came to the US on one of those visas, not a family visa :) (here: "Adjustment of Status from Work, Student, & Tourist Visas" because we don't file I-130's when we file for AOS (we being K1's etc))

Also, you can use the "about me" section of your profile, or the signature section as your own personal timeline (I use the about me section) because the official one doesn't allow for some of the more country specific (or personal) notes.

Congrats on starting the process. :)

** moved from "Adjustment of Status (Green Card) from Family Based Visas" to " Working & Traveling During US Immigration" as this is relating to travelling prior to getting your GC**
