Convergence of a time-slicing approximation is studied in a general way of the Feynman path integral in phase space with an electromagnetic potential. In the present paper a new approximation of the Feynman path integral in phase space, different from the familiar one in physics, is proposed so that its convergence can be shown independently of the choice of electromagnetic potentials and that gauge invariance of the Feynman path integral defined by its limit can be shown directly. It is also shown that the Feynman path integral in phase space defined above can be expressed in the form of the Feynman path integral in configuration space defined in the familiar way in physics, which Feynman himself stated heuristically.
