Aubrey, TX asked in Immigration Law for Massachusetts

Q: Do I have legal status after travel abroad with advanced parole? . Now im paroled into the US.

I was in court proceedings in Boston and court was closed. I was waved in into the US back in 2006 but didn't get a passport stamp. Suddenly, i was in court! They said that i said I entered illegally but is not true.

My son petitioned me in 2018. I submitted my AOS then. After court closed, my AOS was resumed w RFE but my two sponsors have cool feet now. I introduced poor evidences and was denied. They told me to submit an aplication to appeal.

Can I use my son's petition still? He doesn't want to give me his taxes for i864 but I have another sponsor.

I traveled w advanced parole and was paroled into the US. My work permit and travel document are revoked my only way out is to apply again for both? I applied for TPS but haven't been adjudicated.

Do I'm having legal status after been paroled under the AOS?

Can they place me in proceedings again been a TPS beneficiary?

Can I submit my two applications again?

What's my best play?

A: Being paroled into the U.S. after traveling with advanced parole generally means you are in a period of authorized stay, but it does not in itself confer legal status. Your status is dependent on the progress and outcomes of your immigration applications and petitions.

If your Adjustment of Status (AOS) application was denied, you can still use your son's petition as the basis for a new AOS application, provided the original petition is still valid. The fact that your son is unwilling to provide his tax documents for the I-864 (Affidavit of Support) is a hurdle, but you can use another sponsor who meets the financial requirements.

The revocation of your work permit and travel document means you need to reapply for them if your situation allows. Applying again for these documents is dependent on having a pending or approved immigration petition or application that permits their issuance.

Your application for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is separate from your AOS process. Being a TPS beneficiary does not automatically prevent you from being placed in removal proceedings, but it does offer some protection while TPS is valid.

Given the complexity of your situation, including previous denials and the nuances of immigration law, it's advisable to consult with an immigration attorney. They can offer guidance on the best course of action, help with new applications, and ensure compliance with all necessary procedures.
