Advance Parole

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!!
