AOS renew and any new travel restrictions

[Dmoney]

Hello,

Heard through the grapevine that it is not safe to travel on a valid EAD with the new administration in the White House. 

Also, a seperate question: I have applied to extend my EAD under AOS, any news on that renew process being slow rolled?

warm regards

++1,

 

Any info on this topic would be highly appreciated.

There is quite a bit of rumors after yesterday's announcement, so any clarification from the legal team at Murthy would be invaluable.

Your statement does not indicate if someone is travelling out of USA officially and returning on EAD. That is a valid scenario. Even if someone is in EAD , they cannot deny entry if you are eligible for paid leave and are going out to your native country for genuine reasons (visit ailing parents , relatives , son, daughter , wife etc). Legal cases could be other reasons. Since u are on EAD, it is given you are a citizen of a different nation and that you would need to deal with court cases , physical appearance for any mandatory requirements (say Aadhaar card if you wish to apply for if you are Indian for which you would necessarily give finger print and retina scan) etc.  Given the delay in processing of GC cases , it is impossible to expect people to stay put and travel only within 50 states till one gets GC. May be you won't be able to go on pleasure cruises or travel for joy on AP. 

Murthy attorney has given a link for FAQ. That has good piece of info too.
