Under the Biden administration, families with undocumented spouses and children could apply for protections with the Biden-Harris process to Keep Families Together!
On June 18, 2024, President Biden announced a process to keep American families together by protecting the spouses and stepchildren of U.S. citizens. In the form of Parole in Place (PIP), the executive order provided work permits, deportation protection, and a possible pathway to permanent status for people who are already contributing to the U.S. economy and ingrained in American communities.
The announcement also indicated the administration would streamline a waiver process allowing Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) holders and others who have graduated from college to more easily obtain work visas, such as H-1B temporary visas for skilled workers.
As of November 7, 2024, this Biden-era process has been discontinued. Please consult with a reputable immigration service provider for further details on this or any other immigration relief that may be available to you.
