Traveling to US on AP through Abu Dhabi (Immigration preclearance)
Hi - My wife will be traveling to US on a AP through Abu Dhabi. As you might know, Abu Dhabi has US immigration pre-clearance which means you complete your US immigration in Abu Dhabi before boarding your flight to US. This could be beneficial in general if everything is smooth so you can relax in the long leg from Abu Dhabi to US knowing you have cleared immigration. I would like to know if anyone in this forum has experience traveling on AP through Abu Dhabi. I am interested to know a couple of things
1. How different is the immigration experience in Abu Dhabi, especially because I am not sure if the officers in Abu Dhabi can make certain exceptions which otherwise the officers in US might make. In my wife's case, her AP was approved after she left US for an emergency on a humanitarian basis. The USCIS officer did tell me that my wife could use the AP to enter even while it will be effective after she left US. In this case I am not sure if the CBP officers in US would have more idea than the ones in Abu Dhabi with respect to admitting my wife to enter US.
2. The layover in Abu Dhabi is 3 hours. Will this time be enough to complete immigration and board the connecting flight to US especially when using AP where secondary inspection might be involved.
Your help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

Travel in Advance Parole to Nigeria
Hello guys,
I have been reading people’s experiences in advance parole and everyone seems to be fine traveling using the document. I am however looking to see if anyone has had any experience traveling to any African countries (Nigeria specifically) with the AP recently. I have a pending VAWA app and overstayed my visa. If so:
1. What documents were used to travel?
2. Did you have any issue re-entering the US
3. How long was your stay
Any help or experiences shared would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Advance parol
Hey guys, I need advice on what to do here. I miss my court date for my asylum case, so I am under removal proceedings now. but my wife is a US citizen I filed form I-485 and added advance parol, I was granted the advance parol whiles I wait for the interview to be scheduled. Since I miss my court date and my asylum is cancelled, is it going to affect me when I am returning after travelling with my advanced parol? Does filing for I-485 automatically change the status from removal proceedings and gives you a new status?

Travelling to Canada with ETA and coming back into the US with AP
Hi guys, my situation is kinda unique and am very confused on what to do. First of all, I got ETA to travel to canada but I read that only Permanent residents can travel to Canada with ETA and I do not have my US Permanent resident card yet (am currently waiting for interview). Has anyone gone through this before? Will they ask to show green card in addition to Passport that has the ETA at the airport? (I have Nigerian passport btw.) If I do not have the GC, will I be allowed in?
Secondly, I have accrued some unlawful present in the US before filing for AOS, do you think I will any trouble coming back with AP ? And will covid-19 restrictions and everything going on currently affect entrance into the US?

Advanced Parole-DACA 2021
HI-
I received advance parole through DACA, work related purposes, I'm supposed to fly out on 9/10, but I'm concern about the essential travel order that has been extended due to COVID.
Will I be able to come back with no problem? I just know by reading the essential travel guidelines they specify citizens and lawful permanent residents are only allowed back. Does DACA qualify? has anyone travel with advance parole-Daca under the essential travel restrictions?
