Applied for AOS/EAD and I-131, can I travel outside the country?

[Hari400]

Hi, I am on H4 and have applied for Adjustment of status and Advance parole in October,however I alone need to travel for personal reasons to India. Does this effect my existing application? If it is cancelled in this case can I apply once again after coming back to the USA on H4?Or do i have to wait for the priority date to do so again?

Will this have any repercussions on my 485 and I-131?

Thanks.

yes you can travel.   if your last entry is AP and sent a renewal then you can't until it gets approved. 

In some emergency cases you can travel and should return before the new AP approval provided you have a valid visa or previous AP still valid on the date of entry into US.

hope this helps.   As always consult with your immigration attorney.
