AP Renewal - flying international?

[wilcouk 7]

Hi there,

 

So I'm still in AOS waiting upon my rescheduled interview from January! I recently had to renew my AP but couple of things...

 

1. Is AP safe to fly with? By which I mean ...fly back to the UK with my UK passport and re-entering the country with AP? Is there anything else I need to bring? I have no convictions in the US but I'm really worried about leaving as I'm an overstay past more than 180 days on a ESTA but married US citizen and doing AOS, I'm not sure this matters at all...

 

2. This is probably more complicated - I thought I lost my AP (I found it eventually in one of my many folders) however in my panic as I wanted to doit as fast as possible as im trying to attend my mates wedding in England, I thought I couldn't find it so I sent off a new application for Advance Parole, will this further complicate matters? Can I still use my valid AP I have in hand?

 

Thanks

You shouldn't have any issue traveling and flying back to the US.

 

Just curious: is your AP a letter or a card?

I still have my EAD / AP combo card but that expired, after renewal they gave me a I-512L letter

Just in case, besides the letter, even if expired, bring the card with you.

Do you think the new application for a AP will cause an issue when I have the valid AP already? Like can they invalidate it?

No.  It is an extension of an existing, valid AP.
