Re: Traveling

You have not provided enough information in order to answer this question. On what basis have you filed your adjustment of status applicaiton? How long have you been in the United States? What was your status prior to filing your adjustment applicaiton?

I recommend that you discuss the pros and cons of travelling while your adjustment is pending with an attorney.

Re: Traveling

You may travel, however, you must obtain first advance parole, assuming also, that prior to filing for an adjustment you maintained legal status and that you don�t have criminal records.
