We are proud to announce that RJS LAW has expanded its services to include a dedicated Military Immigration Law practice, helping military families navigate the unique immigration challenges they face.

Immigration law can be especially complex for the families of U.S. service members, veterans, and reservists, but military service can also open doors to immigration benefits that are not available to the general public. Options like Military Parole in Place (MPIP), Military Deferred Action (MilDA), and expedited naturalization can help spouses, parents, and children move toward lawful status, work authorization, or even a green card.

Frequently Asked Questions

- What is Military Parole in Place, or MPIP?
- Who may qualify for Military Parole in Place?
- Can MPIP help me get a green card if I entered the U.S. without inspection?
- What is Military Deferred Action, or MilDA?
- How is Military Deferred Action different from Military Parole in Place?
- Can a military spouse apply for a green card?
- Can I become a U.S. citizen through military service?
- What is expedited naturalization for military members and military spouses?
- Can veterans apply for U.S. citizenship based on past military service?

RJS LAW can help you answer these questions. If you have more questions about military immigration contact us at (619) 595-1655 for a free consultation.
