Excited to see my family
Hello everyone. Does anyone have experience passing through customs with AP at the Houston airport? I will be coming back from Guadalajara to Denver with a layover in Houston at the beginning of July.

I applied for AP on January 20th and was approved to travel between 4/25-7/25. Got my approval letter on 4/22. Due to my wife's job working 6 week schedules we couldn't get the time off to travel before the end of June. Excited to see most of family after more than 20 years. The end of June can't come soon enough!

Fiance's AP case received on January 3.
Today, it says:

On May 10, 2017, we updated your name for your Form I-131, Application For USCIS Travel Document, Receipt Number LINxxxxxxxxx. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

What does it mean that his name was updated? Did they make a decision on his case?

Approved advance parole
I just posted a couple of weeks ago
My applicationw as send to the alaska immigration office
Application send :march 15
Application receive: 3/20
Application approved and receive in mail: may9th
Travel dates :july 24-sept 7

I am in shock, partly because i thought i would have to submit more evidence. I send only a couple of letters from the doctor and medicine recipts. I thought it would take longer, but now that i finally have the approval, i am scare to go lol. But i have been following this site, and i have read all your experiences and i know for sure that i would regret missing on this opportunity, especially because i will finally be able to visit my family.

I hope everything goes well. This is going to be my first time flying and i don't know what i should take, how should i buy my tickets and all that (my family lives in Acapulco), i will have to start doing my search.

If any of you have come in through the Houston airport, please comment below your experiences. I am not sure if i should land here or if i should take a route to California instead. Shpuld i take mexican money or they accept dollars?

EAD, I-131 & I-485
Hi all, I've been reading this forum for awhile now. It really helps me in a lot of ways during the application process. Below are my timeline;
Submitted all application on 02/22/17
USCIS received case on 02/27/17
Biometric fees received on 03/02/17 and biometric taken on 03/31/17
No feedback until today, I follow up online through myUSCIS. The last updated status was on 03/22/17. No changes at all.

I read a few of applicants mentioned that their status changed from case received to new card processing etc, is it on the USCIS page? or they will email or text you on that?
You see, my father just passed away. :( and I need to go back before 05/24 for his funeral prayers and also to be with my mom for a bit. I sent a letter together with my I-131 application stating the urgency as well. I'm from Malaysia, my journey back needs a day at least so I need to plan ahead of time too. I'm devastated and the waiting part is not helping.

Another question, I read that with the AP, when coming back into the States, the immigration officer will ask for docs, such as, AP copies, passport and US license? What if I don't have US license yet?

Should I contact USCIS to check on the status?

Hope to hear from anyone. Thank you so much in advance.
Good luck for those who are applying as well.

Hi everyone, I want to share my story to hopefully give someone the courage to apply. I applied on 2/13 and was approved 4/28. I thought a lot about applying like everyone else not only because of timing and the elections but because i had a lot of medical issues that were going on in 2016 that i wanted to make sure were controlled before taking such a big step. I applied for Humanitarian Reasons, my grandmother is very ill and 82. I sent over a doctor's note, supporting medical records, a letter from me, a letter from her caregiver in mexico and all of my medical records as to why i had chosen to go now and see her since her condition had been going on since the second half of last year. I patiently waited since i had requested to go out 5/5 and nothing had happened. As time went on i thought it was going to be approved afterwards. My grandmother's birthday was 5/6 and i was really hoping to be there for it but God chose another time. My letter finally came on 5/5 but i couldn't go that weekend due to the flight and work being requested off and then cancelled. I cannot believe that after 18 years i am finally going back to see her, i left when i was 8 years old and now i get to go back and tell her i am pregnant i am 3 months and have been waiting to tell her in person and share this wonderful joy with her. I am beyond excited and feel extremely blessed. God is great, I believe he is control and everything will work out fine it just takes time. I am leaving this Thursday and coming back Sunday. I work in healthcare and couldn't take a lot of time off. I will forever be grateful for this opportunity and for this wonderful country that allows you to flourish even if it is in steps and little by little we should all be thankful to be here. If anyone is double thinking it and has a reason to apply i would say go for it.
