As attorneys, we want you to know that, at this time, the risk of traveling outside the United States with your Advance Parole travel document is extremely high. The entire legal community has noticed an unusual increase in reentry denials to the United States, even for individuals with pending humanitarian cases without a negative immigration history. Many people have been denied entry based on how they answered questions about their cases, but the reason is not always the same and could change at any time. 

If, despite these recommendations, you believe you must travel abroad due to an emergency, make sure to carefully reread your entire case declaration before leaving the country, and always have your immigration documents with you. Immigration officers want to confirm that you understand your case and that the statements in your declaration are true. If your answers suggest that you do not understand your case or that you do not qualify, the risk of being denied reentry is significantly higher.
