I do not have a date of intended departure, as I do not know if I will ever need to fly back to my home country in the future.

I was just told it is better to fill it out as a just-in-case.

So what do I put?

Do I leave that section blank?

Yes, that's what people put all the time. Or "TBD" (to be determined) or something similar. What you put doesn't really matter.

And then leave the following sections blank?

No explanation or reason is needed when filing the I-131 with a pending I-485 as an adjustment applicant.

Date and length can be left blank and the hand-write Unknown for those after printing out the form.

Part 4 is not filled out. Skip to Part 7 where it tells you to on the form.

On part 7 it says "On a separate sheet of paper, explain how you qualify for an Advance Parole Document, and what circumstances warrant issuance of advance parole."

What do I put?

You don't include a separate sheet of paper.

As was stated earlier, you do not need a reason for applying when you are an adjustment applicant.

Oh, I'll go look at the instructions .

Thanks.

No explanation or reason is needed when filing the I-131 with a pending I-485 as an adjustment applicant. It states this in the instructions on page 8.

See the OR between #2 and #3. If you are filing the I-131 with the I-485, then you need nothing. If filing the I-131 after the I-485, then no reason statement and a copy of the receipt notice from filing the I-485 is all you need.

c. Advance Parole Document

If you are in the United States, you must attach:

(1) A copy of any document issued to you by USCIS showing your present status, if any, in the United States; and

(2) An explanation or other evidence showing the circumstances that warrant issuance of an Advance Parole

Document; or

(3) If you are an applicant for adjustment of status, a copy of a USCIS receipt as evidence that you filed the

adjustment application;
