There are countless # of people that have comeback with AP through DACA and they have adjusted status here in the US.

It's much easier to prove a need to travel with AP than getting an I-601a waiver approved.

AP through DACA can also be given for humanitarian purposes, i.e. a very close elderly relative that you have not seen for many, many years.

We were thinking of going this route through the new DAPA program, but can't do it know since it got stopped by the courts until the stay gets lifted through the appeal that the Obama administration filed some weeks ago.

Getting AP in practice does not seem an issue.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
