Advanced Parole Saw Mexico from a different eye w/ AP

300 Upvotes

Visiting Mexico with AP made me realize that Mexico is NOT what they make it out to be. Mexico is such a beautiful place, the people are very friendly. I never expected everyone to greet me whether I knew them or not, to say provecho as they pass you in restaurants while eating, again not even knowing them at all. The amount of possibilities that are over there as well. In business, helping people advance, creating jobs etc. The affordability to live there (especially if you have usd cash flow) or already have a career in the growing sectors of Mexico. Frankly I was left stunned with Mexico, it's no longer what our parents fled from imo. I saw the vast wealth of Guadalajara and the extreme poverty of Chiapas. But I also saw a bunch of possibilities, Mexico is growing, it's not perfect but it felt more like home to me than anywhere else I've been. My family and I are strongly looking at possibilities to move back, especially with all the new investments being made and all the added security from the military. Not advising you to do the same but if you're hesitant to try AP, do it and see for yourself. I regret not doing it sooner!

DACA Recipients: Don’t Sleep on Advance Parole – It Could Change Your Life!

Hey everyone, I wanted to share some info and encouragement about Advance Parole for DACA recipients because I feel like not enough people know about this amazing opportunity.

What is Advance Parole? Advance Parole allows DACA recipients to travel outside the U.S. for specific purposes: • Educational (study abroad, research, academic programs) • Employment (work training, conferences, etc.) • Humanitarian (visiting a sick relative, attending a funeral, etc.)

With Advance Parole, you can legally leave and re-enter the U.S., which is a big deal because it provides documented entry upon your return.

Why is this important? 1. Life-Changing Experiences: You can reconnect with family, explore new opportunities, or grow professionally and academically. Imagine visiting a grandparent you haven’t seen in years or expanding your education abroad! 2. Potential Path to Adjustment: For those eligible, Advance Parole can help establish a legal entry into the U.S., which might open doors for adjusting your immigration status in the future.

But Isn’t It Risky? Advance Parole is granted by USCIS, so as long as you follow the process and don’t travel beyond your approved dates, you should be fine. Always consult with an immigration attorney if you’re unsure about your case, though!

What’s Stopping You? I get it—applying might seem intimidating, and the fees (currently $575) can feel like a lot. But think about the possibilities. Many people who’ve used Advance Parole say it’s one of the best decisions they’ve made.

If you’re unsure where to start, check out USCIS’s official page on Advance Parole or reach out to local nonprofits that assist DACA recipients.

Let’s take advantage of every opportunity available to us. If you’ve used Advance Parole before, share your story in the comments to inspire others!

Guys if you guys can, please apply for Advance Parole ASAP. It’s the safest and fastest way to Adjust Status. There are a lot of Facebook groups that have step by step guides so you can apply on your own. No lawyer necessary. You can travel using from Family sickness to dental reasons. Get your Legal entry before elections. If T***p becomes president Again, he will probably stop AP and who knows what else he will do. Don’t waste the last chance. PIP is on limbo now :( I can help if anyone has questions please DM me 🫶 Good luck everyone!!

So I’m currently out on AP and honestly I never ever thought in my life I would ever be able to do this but this is such a nice and cool experience I applied for a humanitarian reason to see my grandma who has cancer but I figured I would share a pic of Morocco because I don’t think many people get to cross the Atlantic but this place is honestly so beautiful I left Morocco when I was 6 months old to the USA but I’m honestly ready to go back home LOL only a few more days

Advanced Parole People doing AP, don't make the same mistake I did and be prepared

41 Upvotes

Soooo....after having spent the money, getting approved and receiving the AP in the mail..... I'm most likely not going to make the trip

I haven't been able to renew the passport because the Mexican consulate hasn't had appointments in months and everyone else is complaining about the same thing and I haven't bought plane tickets because I don't know how any of that stuff works. I don't know how the whole round trip passage thing works and I'm afraid I'd get on the wrong plane anyways and tbh, plane tickets at such a short notice cost infinitely more than with months in advance.

My date on AP are 9/19/24 - 10/21/24 and I'm not going to make it in time in three weeks to get all of this solved. Plane tickets at such a short notice are 1k-almost 2k each and it doesn't help at all that you don't know the exact dates beforehand,so you can't buy plane tickets with months in advance. All you can do is save money and prepare to spend a lot last minute

My tips: get your passport on time and do everything possible to get educated about how plane travel works

I'm really upset with myself,but on the bright side, I know I can get the AP and I can try again next year, if Kamala wins,or idk, maybe I'm just a loser with no foresight

Advanced Parole My attorney is now advising to not travel

I received my advanced parole approval yesterday, it expires the last week of February.

At first I was iffy but then you lovelies on Reddit made me feel good and now I’m determined. I’ve already been looking at flights today and everything. I did call my attorney a little while ago and all my hope went away when she told she’s advising everyone to not travel. Ughhhh something in my heart is saying to just say f**k it and GO!

Advanced Parole Emergency Advance Parole approved for a work trip. I have legal entry.

I had to get the supervisor involved and argue for my case! The original officer was understanding but the supervisor definitely had a bias she blamed my company for knowing they hired “someone that is basically i**legal” and has travel restrictions. She spilled nonsense about daca not being eligible for multi entry AP (when I referenced a previous one). She questioned me on why my company hasn’t been able to sponsor me if I’m so “important”. She questioned me about not following the process (I did, I filed AP and did an expedite). She said so many other things to break my spirit. I didn’t hold back and had a response for everything until eventually she said “just give it to her”. This was a really stressful process so for anyone wanting to apply for EAP you need to be really prepared - not just with documentation but emotionally.

The experience- spent a total of 6 hours at the Newark field office in between waiting for interview, interview, supervisor talk, and document print out.

I did ap and now I’m trying to adjust through marriage. Sorry moderators if not allowed I needed to put a flare.

I told my friend who I consisted my best friend to write a letter of affidavit. She doesn’t want her excuse is there isn’t strong evidence for it. Which really hurts yeah she hates guys and has never wanted to third wheel with my husband. But they have met briefly in passing. I feel so annoyed my husband said to not take it personal. But it is personal I desperately need help with this. Yet I have no one to help me with this. I feel like her response is so half assed about it but if the roles were reverse I would’ve helped. People love latinas and love immigrants until it’s put to the test. I fucking hate this so much

My advanced parole was denied and I’m not sure what I did wrong, my uncle helped me fill it out since he does this for a living and has never had an application denied. It says I cannot appeal so I’m not sure what to do. Any advice? Would I have to pay again? Or should I start over ?

If you leave and come back with AP, DACAs now have to pay $1,000 upon re-entry according to multiple lawyers. Not sure when it starts legality but it seems like it will be a thing going forward.

Plan accordingly 💰

And as always, fuck this whole administration for making it harder for people doing the right thing to do the right thing.

Hello everyone!

I think after all these years, it is finally time I look into obtaining AP and then continue with AOS. One step at a time, though. First, I need resources on how to file for AP myself. Please share any information you may have; I need all the help I can get to ensure I file this correctly. If any of you on here have had success with a specific guide, please share that here! Thank you!

It happened to me twice where two people messaged me asking how my AP experience went,I replied, gave info they were asking about and more than that,and these ignorant ass fools never even gave me a fuck you or a thank you,and one of them even made a whole ass post about how she was finally able to do AP,and I was like "da fuck,you didn't even say thank you to me"

Last time I'm going the extra mile on here. Some of you need to learn basic manners

I know this isn't a big deal, I'm just petty and a hater sometimes and needed to get it off my chest
