π¨ IMPORTANT IMMIGRATION UPDATE: ADVANCE PAROLE
Planning to travel outside the United States with Advance Parole? Before you leave, make sure you understand how your immigration history could affect your ability to return.
A recent BIA decision has raised important concerns for individuals who have accumulated more than 180 days of unlawful presence in the United States. Depending on your individual circumstances, leaving the country may trigger serious immigration consequences, including potential 3-year or 10-year bars to reentry.
Having an approved Advance Parole document does not necessarily mean that international travel is risk-free.
Every immigration case is different. Your prior entries, periods of unlawful presence, pending applications, immigration history, and other circumstances can all matter.
Before making international travel plans, speak with an experienced immigration attorney who can review your specific situation.
At IBF Law Group, we help individuals and families understand their immigration options and make informed decisions about their future.
