What this means for applicants

If you were hoping to come to the U.S. through this program:

No new applications are being accepted.
Any pending applications will not be processed.
No new travel authorizations will be issued.

What this means for people with parole

If you are already in the U.S. with parole through this program:

Your parole status could end soon. An announcement on this is expected next month.
You can not apply for re-parole.
You should avoid travel outside of the U.S.
Immigration officials may review your case and decide to terminate your parole, which could lead to removal from the U.S.
You should act now to seek another legal status if you qualify.

How to prepare for your parole status ending

If you are currently in the U.S. with parole, we strongly recommend that you take action immediately:

Get legal help. An immigration lawyer or legal representative can help you review your options. Many organizations and lawyers offer free or low-cost legal services.
Apply for asylum if you qualify. It is free to file.
- If you have been in the U.S. for under 2 years, you may still be subject to expedited removal even with a pending asylum application.
Apply for TPS Ukraine if you qualify.
Know your rights with ICE and how to create a safety plan if you end up losing your legal status.
