[Entry using Advance Parole documents]
My wife and daughter originally entered the USA in March 2016 as K1 and K2 visa holders. We applied for AOS in April 2016, but that paperwork has not been processed yet. We applied for and received Advance Parole. We used this paperwork to return to the USA this January (trip due to health issues of my wife's mother).
We had absolutely no problems going through the entry process. We were sent to secondary inspection, but only because the original passport control officer said he did not have the necessary Advance Parole Stamp at his desk. We waited maybe 1/2 hour there for our name to be called. The only question that was asked of us was whether I was the petitioner. When I answered yes, the officer asked for my passport too. Processing took just a couple of minutes. Both officers were professional and friendly.
The officer did keep one of the two copies of my daughters AP paperwork. My wife had a combination EAD/AP card, and see got that back.
