Military parole in place

Obtaining a parole in place (PIP) with the help of a parole in place lawyer in Van Nuys allows certain aliens who entered the US without inspection to obtain an unlawful presence waiver and adjust their status to lawful without leaving the country. Relief under PIP is optional. However, it is strongly advised in order to lessen the burden placed on military personnel and veterans who have close family who entered the country illegally. As a result, requests for parole in place are frequently approved when the alien’s only reason for exclusion is unlawful presence or admission.

    What is Parole in Place?

    A sort of waiver of non-citizens' inadmissibility known as parole in place has two purposes.:

    • It allows the government to waive an alien’s inadmissibility due to entering the US without inspection
    • It lets the alien apply for lawful permanent residence (Green Card) without leaving the United States for consular processing

      Importantly, PIP alleviates the normal 3-year or 10-year bar against re-entry placed on an alien who leaves the US after being unlawfully present for more than 180 days.

    What is the Eligibility Criteria for a Parole in Place?

    Parole in place is available to an alien who:

    • Is present in the United States without inspection, and
    • Is the spouse, child, or parent of:
      • An Active-Duty member of the US Armed Forces
      • Someone in the Selected Reserve of the Ready Reserve
      • Someone who previously served in the US Armed Forces or the Selected Reserve of the Ready Reserve

    An alien is not eligible for parole in place if he or she entered the US on a visa. We can help you determine your eligibility.

    What is the Process of Application for a PIP?

    Requesting a parole in place might seem overwhelming but a Van Nuys military parole in place lawyer can help you streamline the process. To request a parole in place, you must submit the following to the USCIS office with jurisdiction over your place of residence:

    • Completed Form I-131, Application for Travel Document (without fee). You must handwrite “Military PIP” in Part 2 instead of checking a box
    • Marriage certificate
    • Documentation of termination of previous marriage, if any
    • Son or daughter’s birth certificate
    • Current or former service member’s birth certificate with parent’s name
    • Proof of enrollment in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS)
    • Two identical, color passport-style photographs
    • For parents of current and former service members of the US armed forces, evidence the current or former service member supports the application for parole in place
    • Evidence of any additional favorable discretionary factors that you would like us to consider
    • Evidence that your family member is a current or former member of the US armed forces, such as a photocopy of the front and back of the service member’s military identification card or DD Form 214

    What is the Process of Application for a PIP?

    That said, if an immigrant visa is immediately available, the foreign national can typically move on with the adjustment of status application with a grant of parole in place (and an I-94 in hand). An immigrant visa is always available for immediate relatives (spouse, parent, and unmarried children under 21 of U.S. citizens). There will be a delay for all other family preference categories. Usually, the following documents are submitted for a parole in place for military families:

    • Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status
    • Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative
    • Form I-130A, Supplemental Information for Spouse Beneficiary (if beneficiary is a spouse)
    • Form I-864, Affidavit of Support
    • Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record
    • Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization (optional)
    • Form I-131, Application for Travel Document (optional)

    Can I Get PIP if I'm Already Going Through Deportation Procedures?

    An alien who is in removal proceedings or has been issued a final order of removal may still be able to obtain parole in place. But the alien will first need to persuade Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to terminate active removal proceedings or to join in a motion to reopen an immigration court case.

    Are There Any Risks Involved?

    You will alert USCIS to the family member's illegal status by submitting a parole in place application. There is a chance that the family member could be subject to deportation procedures if the PIP application is denied. It is also imperative that you discuss your immigration history with your parole in place attorney in Van Nuys, and whether you have ever been arrested for a crime, including all attempts to cross the border or other such immigration violations. This will help your attorney evaluate your case properly and let you know if you’re a good candidate for PIP.
