This new USCIS parole program is discretionary and will lead to a work permit and lawful permanent residence (“green card”) in the U.S. without the waiver processing and departure from the U.S. requirements.
We are prepared to prove the following requirements to USCIS on your behalf:
· You are present in the United States without a lawful admission or subsequent grant of parole;
· You have been continuously present in the United States for at least ten (10) years from at least June 16, 2014 until June 17, 2024;
· You have a bona fide marriage with a U.S. citizen as of June 17, 2024;
· You do not have any disqualifying criminal history; and
· You merit a favorable exercise of discretion.

· Evidence of a legally valid marriage to a U.S. citizen as of June 17, 2024, such as a marriage certificate;

· Evidence of your spouse’s U.S. citizenship, such as a passport, birth certificate or Certificate of Naturalization;
