Parole In Place Lawyers: Keeping Military Families Together
Parole in place (PIP) is a special immigration provision that helps keep military families together in the face of immigration struggles. It gives undocumented family members of U.S. military personnel the ability to stay and work in the U.S. on a temporary basis.
At The Law Offices of Polizzotto & Polizzotto, LLC, we’ve been helping families overcome complex immigration barriers for over 60 years. Our parole in place lawyers understand the unique challenges that military families face, and we’re committed to providing personalized, compassionate legal guidance to help you achieve your immigration dreams.
What Exactly Is Parole In Place?
Military parole in place is a discretionary relief offered by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). It’s designed to support military families by allowing undocumented spouses, parents and children of U.S. military service members to avoid deportation (removal). It grants work authorization and the ability to legally remain in the U.S. for a specified amount of time.
Who Is Eligible For Parole In Place?
To qualify for parole in place, you must be:
- The spouse, parent or child of an active-duty U.S. military member, reservist or veteran
- Physically present in the United States
- Able to prove your relationship to the military member
Parole in place can be a significant step toward pursuing lawful permanent residence through adjustment of status while remaining in the United States, typically through a family member.
Applying For Parole In Place
The application process involves several steps:
- Gathering required documents, including proof of your relationship to the military member
- Completing necessary forms
- Submitting your application to USCIS
- Attending any required interviews or appointments
While the process may seem straightforward, the immigration system is notoriously complex, and any number of challenges can arise along the way. Working with an experienced parole in place lawyer can significantly improve your chances of success.
