Hello:

Are there any restrictions on Advance Parole (on basis of Adjustment of Status) in
terms of the time that the person can stay out of the U.S.

The information available via various posts is mixed. Some people say one month, some
say two months and some say that you can stay out of US till the expiry of the
Advance Parole.

The only concrete information that I have got so far is as follows (from: INS website
- URL: http://www.ins.usdoj.gov/cgi-bin/folioisa.dll/lawbooks.nfo/query=[jump!3A!27o-
i2125!27]/doc/{@48198}?):

"When requested by an alien in class (3) above, parole authorization on Form I-512
may be issued by the district director having jurisdiction over the alien's
adjustment application. The following language shall be inserted in the remarks
portion of the Form I-512: ''This authorization will permit you to resume your
application for adjustment of status on your return to the United States.''

The return of such an alien to the United States shall be required within 2 months of
the date of issuance of the Form I-512, and upon his return he shall be paroled for
an indefinite period provided his prima facie eligibility for adjustment continues
except for the unavailability of an immigrant visa number."

Any guidance or help in this regard would be greatly appreciated. Also, if possible,
please specify the source of information provided.

Thank You.
