AP allows re-entry, but there's no guarantee that they will let you back in. Before going anywhere, you'll need to wait for the physical card in the mail.

Hey there ;)

The Advanced Parole is not a guaranteed reentry permit. Reentry depends on a variety of factors like how long you have been away from the country, whether or not you were overstaying prior to departure from the United States, etc. Although the chances of being granted reentry is relatively high, it is not a sure thing. That's why they call it a parole, not a permit.

We have no overstay or anything. We have done everything by the book so far. So probably better off waiting on full GC than take a chance?

Yeah, a GC holder will have a significantly easier time reentering than one with an AP :)
