Timeline
Paperwork submitted: November 7, 2016
Original dates requested: January 2017 for 30 days
Paperwork received: November 20, 2016
NO PAPERWORK UNTIL:
Approval: February 25, 2017 to October 30, 2017
Travel dates: March 19 to April 10, 2017
Airline: Volaris (direct flight from PDX to GDL)
Paperwork: all filed out by myself.

When I received the approval I cried because I didn’t want to go if it was after the new administration. My husband suggested to talk to an attorney and see what other cases had been. (glad I found this forum, that gave me a lot of courage to go). The attorney said that he hadn’t heard of any changes and that his collegues had clients that were traveling just fine. He did suggest just to go sooner than later.

When we arrived in PDX we decided to be the last of the line, just in case I was the only AP traveler. I had my children with me (all 4 US citizens – minors). They were asked if they traveled to Mexico and they said yes, then the officer asked me if I was paroling in and I answered, correct. He then put my paperwork in a folder and took me to another room where another 15+ where in there. When I was arriving in the room (my children were asked to wait outside, probably because of how many there were?) I saw another AP picking up his paperwork and leaving, so that made me feel good. While I waited I saw a lot of permanent residents were also asked to wait (probably for review) and then I was called. He asked me for……my height, weight, hair color and good phone number to call me on. Sat down again and when called did my fingerprints and sat down again. This took another 10 minutes and when he called me up last time he gave me my paperwork and said you are set to go?

God is in control through all of this. I truly believe that if he had given us permission to travel we should take that opportunity. He knows and has a plan for us, so all we need to do is trust. Something that helped me through this process was this verse.1 Peter 5:7 - Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Now my final question to anyone, has anyone asked to travel a second time and if so how soon??????

Thanks and Enjoy!
