Hello friends, I am wondering about these two options, applicants who are under background check with 360 application, and also those who are already approved in 360 and are still under background check in next stage 485 application, which application is actually background and security checked?  If they are checking on 360 then why is it  delay for 485 background check reason .

Happy weekend everyone,

 

I saw on the advance parole that it is good for one year so if I were to leave to visit a family member that is in the hospital does that mean I am allowed to stay outside of the country for one year without repercussions? Or is there an unspoken rule that the maximum amount of time I can spend a broad while my AP is valid is six months or something like that?

You can stay as much as you want. Technically you can stay until it expires. But i don't think anyone recommend to stay entire one year.

Maximum i stayed 6 months.

Can you tell me the phone number? I have absolutely no idea what to do, thank you

For those who have recently called USCIS, what is the right button or option to dial in other to get a live agent.

I think that's in another word what is asked here.

Thanks for your help 🙏

Oh, boy... Sunday!  Time for our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

=============================================

THE JEWISH SAMURAI

 

Once upon a time, a powerful Emperor of the Rising Sun advertised for a new Chief Samurai. After a year, only three men had applied for the job: a Japanese samurai, a Chinese samurai, and a Jewish samurai.

 

"Demonstrate your skills!" commanded the emperor.

 

The Japanese samurai stepped forward, opened a tiny box, and released a fly.  He drew his samurai sword, and swish! the fly fell to the floor, neatly divided in two.

 

"What a feat!" said the emperor.  "Second samurai, show me what you do."

 

The Chinese samurai smiled confidently, stepped forward, and opened a tiny box, releasing a fly.  He drew his samurai sword, and swish! swish! the fly fell to the floor, neatly quartered.

 

"That is skill!" nodded the emperor.  "How are you going to top that, third samurai?"

 

The Jewish samurai, Hiroshi Cohen, stepped forward, opened a tiny box, released one fly, drew his samurai sword, and swoosh! flourished his sword mightily.  However, the fly was still buzzing around.

 

In disappointment, the emperor said, "What kind of skill is that?  The fly isn't even dead."

 

"Dead?" replied Cohen in contempt.  "Dead is easy.  Now circumcision, that takes skill."

:P

They are two different applications and are treated separately according to the manual.
