Have Questions? We Have The Answers
What is Parole in Place (PIP)?
Parole in Place (PIP) is a document issued by the U.S. government that treats an undocumented immigrant as if they had entered the country legally. It allows eligible individuals to apply for a green card from within the United States without having to leave the country, thus preventing family separation.
Who is eligible for Parole in Place?
To be eligible for PIP, an individual must:
-
Be married to a U.S. citizen as of June 17, 2024.
-
Spouse must have been a U.S. citizen as of June 17, 2024.
-
Have been continuously present in the U.S. for at least ten years as of June 17, 2024.
-
Not have a disqualifying criminal history (This will be defined on August 19, 2024.)
-
Not pose a threat to national security.
-
Be eligible for adjustment of status. (This will be defined on August 19, 2024.)
Can a new president stop the PIP program?
Yes, the PIP program can be modified or terminated by a new administration. However, those who are granted PIP under the current administration will retain their status for the duration of their parole.
What are the benefits of Parole in Place for spouses of U.S. citizens?
The benefits of PIP include:
-
Legal stay in the U.S. while the application is processed.
-
Ability to apply for work permits. This will be confirmed on August 19, 2024.)
-
A facilitated path to obtaining a green card without having to leave the country.
What is the difference between the PIP process and the consular process?
The PIP process allows individuals to adjust their status within the U.S. and attend an interview domestically, whereas the consular process requires individuals to leave the U.S., attend an interview at a U.S. consulate abroad, and risk being denied reentry. The consular process is often longer, more expensive, and riskier.
When can I apply for PIP?
USCIS will begin accepting PIP applications on August 19, 2024. More information about eligibility and the application process will be published in a forthcoming Federal Register notice. Applications submitted before August 19, 2024, will be rejected.
Can I apply for a green card with a PIP status even if I entered the U.S. illegally?
Yes, once you have been granted PIP, you are eligible to apply for a green card from within the U.S. without having to leave the country, even if you initially entered illegally.
How should I prepare for the PIP application process?
It is advised to gather all necessary documentation and have your application ready to apply as soon as the application process opens. Being prepared early will increase your chances of successfully obtaining PIP.
What documents do I need to prepare for the PIP application?
You will need to prepare several key documents, including proof of marriage to a U.S. citizen, proof of your spouse’s U.S. citizenship, evidence of continuous physical presence in the U.S. for the last ten years, identity documents, and any other supporting evidence required by USCIS. This may include affidavits, tax returns, utility bills, lease agreements, and employment records.
How can I prove my continuous physical presence in the U.S. for ten years?
Continuous physical presence can be proven through various documents such as employment records, school records, medical records, utility bills, bank statements, and affidavits from individuals who can attest to your presence in the U.S. over the past ten years.
What if I have a minor criminal record? Can I still apply for PIP?
Minor offenses, such as a single DWI, may not necessarily disqualify you from PIP, but more serious crimes such as theft, domestic abuse, and fraud will likely disqualify you. Each case is considered individually, so it’s important to consult with an immigration attorney to evaluate your specific situation. (This will be defined by August 19, 2024)
Can I apply for PIP if I am in common law marriage?
Common law marriages are recognized in some states, such as Texas. If you are in a legally recognized common law marriage with a U.S. citizen prior to June 17, 2024, you may be eligible for PIP. It is essential to provide adequate documentation to prove the validity of your common law marriage.
How much will the PIP application process cost?
The exact fees for the PIP application will be detailed in the forthcoming Federal Register Notice. It’s advisable to set aside funds for the application fee, biometric services fee, and any costs associated with gathering and preparing your supporting documentation.
Can I apply for PIP if I already have an I-130 petition pending?
Yes, you can pursue both the I-130 petition and the PIP application simultaneously. If PIP is approved, it may provide a more straightforward and faster pathway to adjust your status within the U.S.
How can I avoid immigration scams during the PIP application process?
Only seek legal advice from authorized immigration attorneys or accredited representatives working for Department of Justice (DOJ)-recognized organizations. Avoid any individuals or websites that claim to offer guaranteed results or ask for payment via untraceable methods like gift cards or money transfers.
How soon should I start preparing my documents for PIP?
It is highly recommended to start preparing your documents now to ensure you are ready to apply as soon as the application process starts. Being prepared early increases your chances of a successful application.
What if a new president changes the PIP policy?
While a new administration could modify or terminate the PIP program, individuals granted PIP under the current administration will retain their status for the duration of their parole period. It’s important to apply as soon as the process opens to secure your status.
