If I go to an Infopass Appointment for an emergency advance parole document, is it also possible to get an EAD?

 

Do local field offices have the authorization to issue EADs?

I don't think so. Otherwise everybody would be there requesting emergency APs and while there an emergency EAD too.

Also if you don't have a really good reason you won't get an emergency AP either.

 

Edit: Saw that you are adjusting from H1B. I think you are allowed to continue to work until the H1B is valid. Not sure about traveling.

Yeah, I understand that.  Maybe somebody can chime in about traveling on H1B while it's valid. You can call USCIS and try to make an appointment for the AP. They terminated the online scheduling for appointments.  Is your H1B valid?

My h1b extension is pending. And there’s not enough time for me to go the premium processing route. 
I got the info pass appointment but even if I get the AP approved, I still won’t be able to go because of my financial situation.
