My wife had filed for the renewal of her work authorization and advanced parole, because she's still waiting after three years for the AOS process for the green card. She received the work authorization, but not the advanced parole renewal, which could take up to a year. 

 

She has an elderly family member (whom raised her after her biological mother abandoned her) that is at the end of life. My wife says she will leave to attend the funeral, with or without the travel permit. I'm trying to get her to get emergency travel authorization, the paperwork from home is slow. What can of worms will open due to her leaving without the travel authorization? I'm hoping that she will not have to restart the process.

 

We're really frustrated with the lack of progress, while others get their green cards within a year of arriving.

Has her auth expired?  Being stuck outside the US....and possible abandoning her adjustment of status.  I wouldn't do it.  Get an emergency travel auth.

If she leaves, she won’t be allowed back. Put in for expedite of advance parole TODAY. 

She can draft a  simple Letter as sample and email it to the attending physician requesting he write something ( on letterhead) and email it back. 


Even in Colombia …everything is faster when $100 accompanies the request and I am sure she has relatives/friends that could make sure the little gift reaches the doctor.
