As of August 26, USCIS has paused the granting of Applications for Parole in Place for Noncitizen Spouses and Stepchildren of U.S. Citizens. Due to a court order from the U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Texas, USCIS may not approve or adjudicate Form I-131F, PIP applications, although it is still accepting them.
In Texas v. Department of Homeland Security, Case Number 24-cv-306, the court administratively stayed DHS from granting PIP under Keeping Families Together for 14 days. The court may extend the period of this administrative stay for additional periods through mid-October.
The court order resulted from Plaintiff States requesting a temporary restraining order and stay of agency action to roll out the program.
