What is the Parole-in-Place Announcement By President Biden?

On June 18, 2024, President Joe Biden announced a series of immigration actions by using an Executive Order (“EO”). The EO, formally known as Parole-in-Place, are designed to help certain undocumented aliens obtain lawful presence within the United States. It consists of the following:

Spouses and children of U.S. citizens who have been living in the United States for at least ten (10) years.

These individuals may be eligible for lawful permanent residency if, as of June 17, 2024:

Are inside the United States after entering illegally;
Spent 10 consecutive, uninterrupted years in the United States;
Married to a U.S. citizen or have a qualifying step-parent/step-child relationship with a U.S. citizen and;
Do not have a certain criminal history or pose a threat to national security or public safety.

If the person meets these requirements, he or she may be eligible for parole-in-place. Parole would be granted for a one-time period of three (3) years and the person may also be eligible for employment authorization for up to three years. If granted parole, the person may apply to become a lawful permanent resident within 3 years of approval.

Eligibility for this benefit will be determined on a case-by-case basis.

College Educated DACA Recipients and Dreamers who are qualified for nonimmigrant status including H-1B Specialty Occupations.

These individuals may be eligible for a nonimmigrant visa if they:

Have a degree from an accredited U.S. college or university;
Have received an employment offer from a U.S. employer in a field related to your degree.

While the EO offers promise to those who qualify, it is important to note that these programs have not started.

Applicants who apply early for these benefits will be rejected. It is also important to note that these programs may be challenged in federal courts and could delay implementation or prevent the program from starting.

Federal Court of Appeals Rules Against Trump’s EO Ending Birthright Citizenship

A Federal Court of Appeals handed the Trump Administration another blow in its fight to redefine the 14th Amendment ending birthright citizenship through Executive Order (“EO”). The San Francisco-based Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the Administration’s request for an emergency order putting on hold a nationwide ban issued by Seattle-based Judge John Coughenour last month who found the EO blatantly unconstitutional. Judge Coughenour decision was swiftly followed by Judge Deborah Boardman’s decision in Maryland who also ruled that the EO needed to be stopped. While the Trump Administration argued that Judge Coughenour’s ruling went too far, a three-judge panel disagreed and scheduled the case for arguments in June. U.S. Circuit Judge Danielle Forrest, whom Trump appointed during his first term, said that a rapid decision would risk eroding public confidence in judges who must “reach their decisions apart from ideology or political preference.” The other judges on the panel,

U.S. Taxes for Americans Abroad

A common concern raised by our clients departing the United States to reside abroad is what do they need to do about U.S. taxes. Furthermore, there are several misconceptions and misunderstandings that permeate the American expatriate community about U.S. taxes; especially about filing thresholds and some exclusion amounts. Allow us to provide insights — answers to address these questions and clarify the misconceptions. U.S. taxes are the financial backbone of the U.S. economy. The tax system is essential to financing the activities of the federal, state and municipal governments including infrastructure, healthcare, education, military and consular services. Indeed, now a cliché, founding father Benjamin Franklin once said, “nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” Another notable thing about U.S. taxes is that an excerpt is noted right on the last page of one’s U.S. Passport, “All U.S. Citizens working and residing abroad are required to file

Nonimmigrant Visa Dropbox Renewal Eligibility Reverts Back to Pre-COVID Standards

Effective immediately, the United States Department of State (“DOS”) has revised the requirements for interview waiver eligibility (commonly referred to as dropbox eligibility) to applicants renewing a nonimmigrant visa in the classification that expired within the past twelve (“12”) months. Previously, some nonimmigrant visa applicants were eligible to renew through dropbox and avoid having an in-person visa interview, if they held an approved visa in any category that had expired within the past 48 months and wanted to renew their visa in the same category. The DOS expanded 48-month eligibility window was introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic to help reduce consular backlogs. This was expected to remain in place indefinitely. Now, only those whose prior nonimmigrant visas are the same visa category that expired within the past 12 months remain eligible for dropbox processing. Applicants who do not meet this requirement must reschedule for an in-person interview. Impacted nonimmigrant visa
