Advance Parole

I want to apply for AP to be able to go see my grandparents who are very ill. I have been asking my uncles and aunts who live with my grandparents for hospital documents are doctor notes regarding my grandparents health but because this is not important to them they are not getting them to me in a timely manner. What kinds of documents do I need to provide to be able to travel to see my grandparents.
What have some of you provided as proof for humanitarian reasons?

Hello everyone.
I wanted to share my experience with you all and although i am a little late i know my experience will help many of you. Thank you everyone who shared their experience on this site. It was very helpful and gave me the courage to travel outside the U.S. (sorry this will take long so stay with me) thank you.
I applied for AP on June of 2016, to go see my grandfather in Guadalajara who was very sick. My AP was approved on march 10, 2017, almost a year of waiting. My grandfather ended up passing away in December 2016 so I never got to see him. The reason why It took so long was because the person who helped me with the application sent it out to the wrong office, An officer called me a week after receiving my application asking if I lived here or in Mexico, I replied "here, she stated that the person who helped with the application checked the box that I lived outside of the US. (So make sure to go over you paperwork before submitting it) The officer then sent it to the correct office. I can't remember how long after that, I received a letter asked me for my mothers and grandfathers translated birth certificate. Which I did submit, but I guess the translation was so horrible that they weren't able to understand them, they had been translated word by word. Now for those of you who are from Mexico know that the birth certificates from back than looked more like a whole summary with a bunch of people's names. Well you can just imagine what that looked like when she translated it lol. So anyway I got that fixed.

So March 10, 2017 I got approved. I had lost hope since it took way too long!! But Right after I got approved I went to see my lawyer. I was afraid to travel because of the the whole trump thing plus the AP approval clearly states that it is not 100% that they will let you back in. That was scary I have two kids so that was my biggest worry.
My lawyer advised me not to leave for long she said that the best thing to do was to go on the weekend and for one day only. Her reason being was that if trump decided to change anything it will most likely be during the week.
She said "if you go and stay out for long and things change while you are out there then they will Denied your re- entry" She said I should meet up with my family in TJ instead. So that was what I did.
My husband and I drove to TJ on March 18, I spent the whole day with my family. It was great but the whole time I was very nerves. On the way back we crossed the border the officer asked us for our passports, I handed him my Mexican passport along with my AP, he looked at it and asked where we were going went back inside and entered some information then asked us to go to secondary inspection, there I was told to walk in the office and hand them my paperwork so I did. My whole body was shaking, I was so nervous. I walked in, there was only one officer there she looked kinda mean so I was scared lol. I handed her my paperwork and then asked her where the restrooms were. My name was called by another officer (thank god!) as soon as I walked in from the restroom. She asked me for my work permit. My work permit and my AP had two different last names. She was more concerned on why I took so long to change my last name with USCIS I explained to that right after I got married my DACA was approved and I did try changing the last name but I had to pay the fee again so I decided to wait until it was time for my renewal. So she asked me for my marriage certificate, gave her that. Just waited about 10min while she entered all the information and that was all she stamped my AP but not my passport, she said it did not need to be stamped and I was on my way back!! Omg I was so happy it was such an amazing moment!! I couldn't believe it. Although I didn't get a chance to see my grandfather. I thank god for this.
EVERYONE DONT LOSE HOPE, GOD IS GREAT and TAKE THE RISK IT IS SO WORTH IT.
One more things guys. I did go back to my lawyer and applied for adjustment of status. If you want my experience on that leave me a comment. This post is already too long! Thank you everyone for the courage!!

Hi,
My parents finally approval letters saying that their I131 got approved. The approval notice says AP is valid for 1 year (same as work authorization) 5/2017-4/2018. I read here that AP itself may have flying dates listed (for example, May 21-July31, 2017). Is this something that USCIS lists on the AP itself? The requested dates that we put on the application have passed already. If you do travel on AP, how long can you stay abroad? Thank you, here is our time line if anybody cared:
1/17/2017-USCIS accepted I131.130. 485.etc
99 days after raised SR re work authorization
5/5/17-cards mailed

Good morning,

I have a quick question,

When we send the applications, do We have to include I-693 or do we keep that until we have to go to the medical exam?

Thank you in advance... :)

Hi guys,
I'm back from my short trip I left on Friday May 5, 2017 at 12:00 am flight to Guadalajara through LAX and although my trip was for one day only it was wonderful!...I saw my grandma who I haven't seen for about 18 years and it was an emotional moment and a blessing that we had an opportunity to see each other again. I left on Saturday May 6 at 12:00pm arriving to TJ airport at 1:15pm and from there i visited more family and got to experience TJ for a few hours before returning. Guys, it was such an indescribable experience! I left with great memories! And overall, i left Mexico with the strength and desire to go back one day again! Ok well on my way back my wife and I were picked up by family and drove accross the border were we all presneted our passports and mine was obviosly a Mexican passport so i handed the officer my AP docuemnts and he directed me to the inspection lane. After that I got off the car and was direceted to an office where i was interviewed briefly but stayed about an hour because the officers were busy with other people...so the CBP officer just took my ap dics and stamped both but he only kept one and i kept one...he said they don't stamp passports so that's that and i went back to the car and it was an emotional moment with my family and wife but thank God everything went very well! I am happy to say that I will be by God's will applying to adjustment of status soon so guys don't give up hope! I will be posting again real soon when i apply for adjustment of status :) keep your head up guys! And God bless all of us!

Hi.. I am planning a trip and want my mom to travel to Spain with me. My question is.. her passport says vaZquez with the z and her green card is vaSquez with the S. will that be a problem upon arriving to the airport and compare her GC with her passport? When she received her GC she was so excited and didn't want to call back to fix it. Please let me know if you have any experiences. Thank you all for reading it.

Hello everyone, this is my first time in this forum. I have been following this forum for awhile. It gives me hope to apply for the advance parole travel document. I was brought here since I was 1 years old in which I have no memory of. I applied the travel document through an immigration lawyer. My reason to travel back to Mexico is for humanitarian reasons which is because of my grandparents. They are becoming very ill. Moving on from there I decided that I want to travel back to Mexico to visit them. Here is my timeline:

PD: February 7, 2017
USCIS received: February 13th, 2017
Case status change to "your name has been updated" on April 25, 2017
Case statue change on April 28th, 2017 to "your document has been mailed to you to the following address, if you don't receive by May 28th, contact USCIS" (i did not know what this means. There was no approval online or anything)
Today, May 5th 2017, I received a letter and I was in shock. It has my picture in it and I only requested for 30 days. They gave me 3 months to travel.

I thank god and have been praying everyday for this opportunity. I am going to continue to pray until this whole journey is finished.

I am wondering if travelling for volunteering purpose is a valid humanitarian reason. Has anyone heard or experienced this?

Hello guys, I am in a decision to leave or not to leave the country with AP, (DACA) since I was detained by the border when I was 15 years old it was only once I do not remember exactly what happened but I do not know if I have voluntary deportation since I believe Remember that maybe they took the fingerprint of one of my hands but they did not take a photo and I do not remember if they signed something and they never told me that I had a punishment not to enter the country, my sister who was 13 years old was with me, they let us out in a few hours and she Is already a citizen and never appeared anything ... my question is if someone from you has been through something similar? My lawyers say that they do not believe that it is a serious offense since it was a minor, but if someone has been through the same situation I would be very grateful for any information !!
