Reentry Permit\u003Cbr>A Reentry Permit allows a lawful permanent resident or conditional permanent resident to apply for admission to the United States upon returning from abroad during the permit’s validity without the need to obtain a returning resident visa from a U.S. Embassy or U.S. Consulate.\u003Cbr>2. Refugee Travel Document\u003Cbr>A Refugee Travel Document is issued to an individual in valid refugee or asylee status, or to a lawful permanent resident who obtained such status as a refugee or asyleein the United States. Individuals who hold asylee or refugee status and are not lawful permanent residents must have a Refugee Travel Document to return to the United States after travel abroad, unless they possess an Advance Parole Document. A Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officer at the U.S. port-of-entry will determine your admissibility when you present your travel document.\u003Cbr>3. Advance Parole Document for Individuals Who Are Currently in the United States\u003Cbr>Parole allows an alien to physically enter into the United States for a specific purpose. An individual who has been“paroled” has not been admitted to the United States and remains an “applicant for admission” even while paroled. | [Page 1]\u003Cbr>What Is the Purpose of Form I-131\u003Cbr>[No Change] |\n\n\n|  | DHS, as a matter of discretion, may issue an Advance Parole Document to authorize an alien to appear at a port-of-entry to seek parole into the United States. The document may be accepted by a transportation company in lieu of a visa asan authorization for the holder to travel to the United States. An Advance Parole Document is not issued to serve in place of any required passport.\u003Cbr>WARNING: The document does not entitle you to be paroled into the United States; a separate discretionary decision on a request for parole will be made when you arrive at a port-of-entry upon your return.\u003Cbr>WARNING: DHS may revoke or terminate your Advance Parole Document at any time, including while you are outside the United States, in which event you maybe unable to return to the United States unless you have a valid visa or other document that permits you to travel to the United States and seek admission.\u003Cbr>NOTE: Generally, if you are in the United States and have applied for adjustment of status to that ofa lawful permanent resident, your application will be deemed abandoned if you leave the United States without first obtaining an Advance Parole Document. Your application for adjustment of status generally will not be deemed abandoned, even if you do not apply for an Advance Parole Document before traveling abroad while an adjustment application ispending, if you currently are in one of the following nonimmigrant classifications, and remain eligible for and would be admissible in one of the following categories upon applying for admission at a port-of-entry:\u003Cbr>a.
