Help - Urgent - travel without I-551 stamp

[vijayt]

My I485 approval date is 15 oct and I got the appointment for Passport Stamping on 20 dec.
I tried a walkin inteview at the INS office , but they are not allowing anyone without an appointment
Can I travel using Advance parole with out the I551 stamp. I would greatly appreciate any help in this matter

I heard from my lawyer that if your 485 is approved then you should get the I-551 stamp before you leave the country.

I also heard from someone that if you go the USCIS office and show your travel tickets then they might leave you inside for the stamping...

Thank you. I postponed my travel plans to get the I-551 stamp.
