Advanced Parole Timeframe

[julie b 0]

Hi all,

So we've come far at this point in our process. We submitted our AOS forms along with applications for advanced parole and EAD and these all have a receipt date of December 19th, 2012 with USCIS. My fiance has also received his biometrics appointment for January 17th, 2013. Our question is, in any of your experiences, how long has advance parole taken to come through? We are slightly concerned because we need to go back to the UK on 8th March for a good friend's wedding but we are not sure if our papers will come through in time. Our lawyers have advised that we are ineligible to apply for an expedite because USCIS has very strict guidelines of what constitutes valid reason for expedite of AOS. We are in a bit of a bind and hoping for some advice and information on how long others' have taken. Many thanks in advance for your replies!

Mine came through in 49 days, but that was a few years ago. Things could have sped up or slowed down since. It was about 4 weeks after my biometrics appointment. Hope you get it in the time!

Your timeline gives the best estimate based on mathematical averages of all the recent VJ approvals ...everybody reporting an approval, not just those who will answer your post.

Based on timeline data, your AP may be adjudicated between February 26, 2013 and February 28, 2013*.
