Could anyone help me with some doubts I am now having: I have done my biometrics and am scheduled to have an interview for a marriage-based AOS in January. I am traveling home (to Europe) for Xmas. Since my current J-1 visa is valid til February, I thought I could travel on the J-1 visa until I get my GC. I have just heard this may be incorrect and would count as 'abandoning' the process. Please could you advise for someone on a current J-1 visa?

Hi all,
Could anyone help me with some doubts I am now having: I have done my biometrics and am scheduled to have an interview for a marriage-based AOS in January. I am traveling home (to Europe) for Xmas. Since my current J-1 visa is valid til February, I thought I could travel on the J-1 visa until I get my GC. I have just heard this may be incorrect and would count as 'abandoning' the process. Please could you advise for someone on a current J-1 visa?
Many thanks,
