Can I travel outside the United States if I have an approved travel permit?
If you are the beneficiary of an approved travel permit, known as advance parole, you have the opportunity to temporarily leave the United States and return without losing your immigration status. However, before you pack your bags, there are some important considerations to keep in mind:
- Check the validity of your permit: Make sure your document is valid for the period of time you plan to be out of the country.
- Reason for travel: This permit is usually obtained for humanitarian, employment or family reasons. Always carry documentation of the reason for your departure in case it is requested upon re-entry.
- Consult an attorney: Each case is different, and there are risks for certain beneficiaries, such as those with immigration or legal backgrounds. Personalized advice can make all the difference.
