Can we as EB-5 investors apply for advance parole under concurring filing?

My wife and I (Both Students-OPT) plan to apply for EB-5. My question is about the concurring filing. Can my wife apply for the advance parole, same as me?

    Yes, you both are eligible and provided you have not accumulated unlawful presence over 180 days, you can use the advance parole to travel - they are, however, very backlogged.

    Yes - one of the benefits of filing for adjustment of status is that you are allowed to file for a temporary work permit (EAD) and travel permit (advanced parole) as part of your adjustment of status package. This benefit applies to all dependent applicants too.
