Hi everyone

I am sure questions similar to this have been asked many times, but I could not find an answer to our case.

we have been in the States since March 13th, we got married and filed all our paper work for AOS 2 weeks ago.

we have already planned to have the wedding in Turkey in September. we have signed the contracts and some of our family have bought their tickets.

however no we are worried that advanced parole might not come through in time, or as we saw in other posts and threads you can not get AP for a wedding, it has to be for reasons such as death or sickness or so on...

please help us, are we going to get the AP in time or not??

Hey!

Come join us in the April filers thread so you can check other timelines.

Honestly, of course you can never tell what will happen with USCIS, but I don't see why you wouldn't have your EAD/AP and GC around September. We filed the same time as you and I am hoping to get it around the same timeframe. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do now but wait, but at least we can keep track of each other's timelines.

Goodluck! :)

If you got married and filed for AOS and AP, how do you have a wedding in September in Turkey? Do you mean a traditional wedding ceremony, perhaps?

Anyway, you do not need a reason for AP, only for Emergency AP, and it is very unlikely that a wedding of an already married couple would qualify. If all your AOS paperwork is in order, you should have your regular AP in time though. All you can do is be patient and hope for the best.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
