Application for Travel Document, Reentry Permit, Refugee Travel Document, Advance Parole Document

  In order to present your Application to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services: reentry permit, refugee travel document, or advance parole document, you should be informed about your eligibility:

Reentry Permit: If you are in the United States as a permanent resident or conditional resident, you may apply for a reentry permit. A reentry permit allows a permanent resident or conditional resident to apply for admission to the U.S. during the permit’s validity without having to obtain a returning resident visa from an American Consulate. A reentry permit is not required for return from a trip of less than one year's duration.

Possession of a reentry permit does not relieve you of any of the requirements of the immigrations laws except the necessity to obtain a visa from an American consulate. For the purpose of later naturalization, absence from the United States for 1 year or more will normally break the continuity of any required period of continuous residence in the United States and you will need to file an application to preserve residence for naturalization purposes. Inquire at you local US Immigration office for further information.

Refugee travel document: If you are in the United States in a valid refugee or asylee status, or obtained permanent residence as a direct result of refugee or asylee status in the U.S. you may apply for a refugee travel document. A refugee travel document is a document issued by the Service in implementation of Article 28 of the U.N. Convention of July 28, 1951. You must have a refugee travel document to return to the United States after temporary travel abroad unless you are traveling to Canada to apply for a U.S. immigrant visa (see advance parole document below).

Advance parole document: If you are outside the United States and must travel tot he United States temporarily for emergent business or personal reasons, you may apply for an advance parole document to be paroled into the U.S. on humanitarian grounds if you cannot obtain the necessary visa and any required waiver of excludability. Parole cannot be used to circumvent normal visa issuing procedures, and is not a means to bypass delays in visa issuance. Parole is an extraordinary measure, sparingly used to bring an otherwise inadmissible alien into the U.S. for a temporary period of time due to a very compelling emergency.

Another person who is in the U.S. may file this application in your behalf..

If you are in the United States you may apply for an Advance Parole document if you :

An advance parole document is issued solely to authorize the temporary parole of an individual into the United States.

It may be accepted by a transportation company in lieu of a visa as authorization for the holder to travel to the United States.  It is not issued to serve in lieu of any required passport.

Additional Processing Criteria:

Reentry Permit or Refugee Travel Document: A reentry permit or refugee travel document may not be issued to you if: You have already been issued such a document and it is still valid, unless the prior document has been returned to the Service or you can demonstrate it was lost, or due to national security, diplomatic or public safety reasons the government has published a notice in the Federal Register precluding issuance of such a document for travel to the area you intend to go to.

In addition, a reentry permit may not be issued if you have been a permanent resident for more than 5 years and have been outside the U.S. for more than 4 of the last 5 years, unless you are a crewman regularly serving abroad an aircraft or vessel of American registry and the travel is in connection with your duties as a crewman or your travel is on the orders of the United States government, other than exclusion or deportation order.)

Advance Parole: An advance parole may not be issued to a person who is in deportation proceeding, is the beneficiary of a private bill, or is subject to the 2 year foreign residence requirement due to having held J-1 nonimmigrant status.
