QUESTION
Can I travel with a T-visa and an advanced parole?
Asked on Jul 26th, 2022 on Immigration - New York
More details to this question:
I last came in the United States in 2009 with a student visa (F1). In 2013 I was a victim of a crime and applied for a T-visa which took too long so I forgot about it. In 2017 I got married and my wife applied for a green card for me but ended filling for a I-360 Vawa due to unfortunate circumstances. My I-360 got approved in 2021. I currently have a work permit and an advanced travel parole. To my surprise my T-visa which I forgot about was approved in 2022. So my question is can I travel back to my country Abe able to re-enter without a problem since I have the advance parole for my I-360 case and a current legal status with my T-visa? I know it's a very complicated situation and thus I need help.

I typically advise client’s not to leave the country while their adjustment of status application is pending. However, I recognize that family emergencies can happen, so not departing the country might not be an acceptable option.
Yes, you are allowed to travel with your advance parole document.
That being said, I recommend you talk to an immigration attorney to identify any issues that might make traveling outside the country ill-advised. Most immigration attorneys offer a free consultation so you can get your questions answered for free.
