Renewing EAD due to wait on greencard. Questions 14 and 15 - help?!

[Jo Amelia Finlay 20]

I have searched high and low for help/clarification on this, but not found anything of use. Because of the backlog and interview waiver mess, I am here nearly a year and still no greencard in hand yet, soooo I need to renew my EAD. I am looking at the i-765 form now. I have filled out everything, but questions 14 and 15 are making me stop and think twice.

When I filed this initially, my last entry into the US was the 'big move' here on a K1 visa, but since then my husband and I have gone to Canada a couple of times and I have obviously started the AoS journey.

Long story short: I am in pending Adjustment of Status right now (and when I last left and re-entered the country at the Canadian border), so what is my "STATUS AT LAST ENTRY" and "CURRENT IMMIGRATION STATUS" ??

I apologise I couldn't find this info elsewhere. Any info really gratefully received.

..."adjustment applicant"...?

Status last entered US: K1 Visa

Current Immigration Status: C(9) Pending Family Based Form I-485 Application to Register Permanent Resident

Status last entered US: K1 Visa

Current Immigration Status: C(9) Pending Family Based Form I-485 Application to Register Permanent Resident

But it's my understanding that I didn't last enter the US on a K1? I entered in Feb 2014 on a K1, but then later last year I crossed to Canada and back - that isn't still the K1 I am entering on. K1 is single use.

We live so close to Canada it barely feels like a border crossing on the way over, but on the way back the USA border guards are just as terse as in airports. I have been pulled into secondary twice because of this EAD card. I don't really like travelling on it, although with these epic delays I might just have to start.

I am sure K1 is not the correct answer here, hence this post

The correct answer is "parolee".

[KayDeeCee 4,896]

You were last admitted as a K-1 visa holder. You have been paroled back into the US using your AP.

#14, manner of last entry would be Advance Parole

#15, current immigration status would be K-1 visa holder/adjustment applicant

Actually KayDeeCee is probably right, since parole isn't entry, it's parole.

Okay guys, thank you! Your responses made me dig a little deeper and find out/realise that indeed "parole" does not count the same as "entry". So technically my last "entry" into the US *was* last February!

Just been reading this FAQ - http://www.uscis.gov/news/questions-and-answers/uscis-issue-employment-authorization-and-advance-parole-card-adjustment-status-applicants-questions-and-answers

Never assume, I guess!

Thanks again people, I should be able to complete and send soon
