What is the process for applying for an advance parole?
In Washington, the process for applying for advance parole as part of family immigration law is relatively straightforward. To begin, the individual must have a pending Adjustment of Status (AOS) application with the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This application must already be submitted in order to apply for advance parole. After the AOS application is submitted, the individual can submit the the USCIS Form I-131. This document is used to apply for both advance parole as well as a travel document. The application must include evidence and documentation in support of the individual’s claim that they need to travel for a special purpose. It may take the USCIS up to three months to approve the application. In the event that the individual is traveling with a minor or someone else who is applying for advance parole, a separate application must be filed and additional documents may be required. Once approved, the individual will receive an Advance Parole Document and will be able to travel abroad. It is important to note that the individual must have permission to re-enter the United States and must carry their Advance Parole Document when returning. Failure to do so may result in deportation.

El propósito es proporcionarles la oportunidad de salir del país sin renunciar a su estatus de petición de residencia permanente. El “Advance Parole” es un documento emitido por el Servicio de Ciudadanía e Inmigración de los Estados Unidos (USCIS) que permite a los solicitantes viajar fuera de los Estados Unidos y regresar a los Estados Unidos sin necesidad de una visa. En el estado de Washington, el proceso para solicitar el "Advance Parole" comienza con la presentación de la Solicitud de Parole Temporal (Formulario I-131) y los documentos relacionados. Esto incluye una solicitud de miembros extranjeros de la familia (I-130), si corresponde, además de una copia de la página de la tarjeta de residencia permanente anverso y reverso, fotografías recientes, comprobantes de pagos de tarifas, copias de los pasaportes actuales y pasados, y una copia de la evidencia de la relación familiar. Una vez que todos los documentos se hayan presentado y el USCIS los haya aprobado, el solicitante recibirá una Notificación de Acción (NOA) con la decisión. Si la solicitud es aprobada, el solicitante recibirá el "Advance Parole" en un plazo de tiempo razonable. El documento deberá presentarse a las autoridades de inmigración al llegar a los Estados Unidos para recibir el reingreso autorizado.
