Latest Updates on Parole in Place (Keeping Families Together) for Spouses and Stepchildren of U.S. Citizens

In June 2024, the Biden administration announced a new Parole in Place (PIP) process for undocumented spouses and stepchildren of U.S. citizens. The goal of this process was to allow eligible applicants to adjust their status (get a green card) without having to the leave the United States and risk being separated from their families. The process went into effect on August 19, 2024, and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) started approving applications right away. However, on August 23, 2024, the state of Texas along with 15 other states filed a lawsuit to stop the process.
