While I am a frequent critic of the Biden administration's "CHNV" and "CBP One app interview" parole schemes, I've been hands-off over a separate program permitting nationals of Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, and Honduras who are beneficiaries of petitions for alien relatives to also be paroled indefinitely into the United States.
Not anymore, because the website for that so-called "Family Reunification Parole Processes" reveals that the program is tailor-made for corruption - likely because and also the reason why Congress has never authorized it.
Last July, my colleague Elizabeth Jacobs wrote an insightful piece captioned "DHS Creates Yet Another Parole Program for Aliens to Cut in Line", which details the program and explains why it exceeds DHS's limited authority to parole inadmissible aliens into the United States.
I'd be gilding the lily to reiterate all the points Jacobs makes therein, but if you want to understand the degree to which the Family Reunification Parole ignores and evades the annual limitations Congress has set on lawful immigration to the United States, she lays it out in detail.
The Biden administration elbowed its way into this congressionally established process on July 7, 2023, when it announced that it would be expanding on pre-existing parole processes for Cubans and Haitians to create a similar program nationals of Colombia, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras who are beneficiaries of approved I-130s to participate, as well.
Q1. How will USCIS decide who is invited to participate in the family reunification parole processes?
Q2. Who is eligible for consideration for parole under the family reunification parole processes?
