Re-entry on AP for the second time

[Adam Macy 8]

Hi everyone! I have a quick question regarding re-entry with AP. I have used my AP document while my AOS application is pending twice. It’s a paper AP, not a combo card. First time I used it,  I was sent to secondary inspection and the border officer stamped the original AP form as well as my passport with a parole stamp. Today I used it for a second time, was not sent to secondary inspection - which I understand it’s likely but doesn’t happen all the time - and the stamp on the passport read “admitted” and not paroled. I am confused/slightly worried that this might have been a mistake on the border agent but maybe since I was using the AP for the second time this is the correct stamp. Has anyone travelled with their AP for at least two times and have the same situation? Should I be worry? I have a valid AP document until May 2023 so but I am a bit worried about the stamp on my passport. Any thoughts on the above would be much appreciated. Thanks!

As a follow-up on my post above and if helpful for someone else who had or will experience the same situation, I checked the USCIS website and found out that when the border officers make a mistake on your immigration status when you are admitted in the US you need to have it fixed by visiting the relevant Deferred Inspection Unit which varies depending on your POE. In my case, the unit was located in Terminal 5 of JFK. I first called them and they confirmed they needed to amend the status from admitted to paroled in the US. The process was pretty easy, I went back to the airport a few days after I came back to the US and handed the officers my passport and AP document, in and out in 15 minutes.
