advance parole

Read a random definition: sub sigillo

A quick definition of advance parole:

Advance parole is a special permission given to certain foreign nationals who are waiting for their immigration applications to be processed. This permission allows them to leave the United States and come back without losing their pending application. To get advance parole, they need to apply for it before leaving the country. If they don't, they may not be allowed to come back and their application may be cancelled. Advance parole is granted by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and is necessary for people who have applied for adjustment of status or have refugee or asylum status and need to travel temporarily abroad for a good reason.

A more thorough explanation:

Advance parole is a document that allows certain foreign nationals to travel outside of the United States and return without losing their pending immigration status. It is important to obtain advance parole before leaving the U.S. to avoid being denied entry upon return.

  • An individual who has filed an application for adjustment of status but has not yet received a decision from USCIS may apply for advance parole to travel outside of the U.S. and return.
  • A refugee or asylee who wants to apply for an immigrant visa in Canada may apply for advance parole to travel outside of the U.S. and return.
  • An individual with an emergent personal or bona fide reason to travel temporarily abroad may apply for advance parole to travel outside of the U.S. and return.

These examples illustrate how advance parole can be used to allow certain foreign nationals to travel outside of the U.S. and return without losing their pending immigration status. It is important to obtain advance parole before leaving the U.S. to avoid being denied entry upon return.
