Start Date Announced for New Parole in Place for Spouses of US Citizens

USCIS has announced a start date of August 19, 2024 for its new program of granting parole-in-place, a path to Permanent Residence, for individuals who have been married to US citizens as of June 17, 2024 and who have been present in the United States for at least 10 years as of June 17, 2024.

They have not yet released forms or application procedures.

In their announcements, they provide guidelines for what applicants can start to assemble in preparation for an application.

As I wrote in my original announcement, the future and stability of this program seem highly uncertain both because of challenges in court that are likely to come and because of the upcoming presidential election.

Every case has to be decided individually. If you are a current or potential client of mine, I will consider very carefully whether you should apply or pursue a different course of action.
