Overseas Parole Case

Onboarding ends on May 15, 2024 at 5:00 PM Eastern

This case is for one primary scenario: Your family is separated between the United States and another country. The principal and/or a derivative is in the United States, but other derivatives (spouse, children, parents, siblings) are outside the US. This case allows the family members who are outside the US to travel to the US, apply for work authorization when they get here, and be awarded deferred action when they get here. Petition Attorneys do not believe this is possible, but we have reunited dozens of families.

PLEASE NOTE: The goal of this case is to get overseas U visa applicants waiting list decisions that give them “conditional parole.” These decisions are issued by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. However, after receiving a waiting list decision with conditional parole, all recipients who are outside the United States will have to complete a DS160 with the Department of State, provide them biometrics, and attend an interview at the consulate. Banias Law will take all steps necessary to force USCIS to give you a waiting list decision with conditional parole, but Banias Law cannot help with the DS-160 or communications with the consulate.

Eligibility: You must fall within one of the groups below to join.

  • Group 1

    • Principal is in the United States and has a BFD or waiting list decision; and

    • Derivatives are outside the United States with no action or waiting list decisions.

  • Group 2:

    • Principal is in the United States with no action;

    • The Principal filed before February 1, 2023; and

    • Derivatives are outside the United States.

  • Group 3

    • Principal has been issued a waiting list decision; and

    • Principal and/or derivatives are outside of the US.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • No. But if you have not done your fingerprints, the government will require you to give them before it issues you a BFD or EAD.

  • No. But we would encourage you to tell your petition attorney. Depending on what address receives your BFD and EAD, you will want to put them on notice that those documents should be arriving soon. Also, if you get a request for evidence, your petition attorney NOT Banias Law, will be responsible for responding to USCIS timely.

  • No. I have never seen USCIS retaliate against a U visa applicant for filing a delay suit or being part of a group delay suit. First, it is illegal for them to retaliate against someone for suing them; the U.S. Constitution protects your right to sue the government. Second,
