Parole in Place

News from Moreno Law Office, LLC Attorney Madeleine Moreno. Monday, August 19, 2024. The Application Process for Parole In Place (PIP) is now open that will allow individuals who meet the criteria be eligible for employment authorization and lawful permanent residence (green card) inside the United States without having to depart to their native country. USCIS announced that it will consider applications of individuals that are in removal (deportation) proceedings and/or who have an order of removal (deportation) if there is a significant public benefit or urgent humanitarian reasons that warrant granting PIP. USCIS stated that even if you meet the criteria to seek a discretionary grant of parole, USCIS may deny your request if they determine that a grant of parole is not warranted in your case.

Application for Parole in Place (PIP) for Certain Noncitizen Spouses and Stepchildren of U.S. Citizens starts Monday, August 19, 2024.

Who May File:

A noncitizen spouse or stepchild of a U.S. citizen may request parole in place under this process if they:

  • Are present in the United States without admission or parole;

  • Have been continuously physically present in the United States:

  • Since June 17, 2014, if seeking parole in place as the spouse of a U.S. citizen; or

  • Since June 17, 2024, if seeking parole in place as the stepchild of a U.S. citizen;

  • Have a legally valid marriage to a U.S. citizen as of June 17, 2024, if seeking parole in place as the spouse of a U.S. citizen; or a noncitizen parent who had a legally valid marriage to a U.S. citizen on or before June 17, 2024, and before the stepchild’s 18th birthday, if seeking parole in place as the stepchild of a U.S. citizen;

  • Do not have any disqualifying criminal history;

  • Do not pose a threat to national security and public safety.

 

USCIS announced that even if you meet the criteria to seek a discretionary grant of parole, USCIS may deny your request if we determine that a grant of parole is not warranted in your case. If you are in removal proceedings or have an order of removal, you may still qualify for parole.

 

USCIS announced that you can submit any additional evidence demonstrating the significant public benefit or urgent humanitarian reasons that warrant granting you parole and evidence of any additional favorable discretionary factors that you would like them to consider, including any information that may be considered in overcoming a rebuttable presumption of ineligibility.
