Humanitarian Parole Program

This is a rarely used immigration program. It is for non immigrants, generally inadmissible, who need to come to the U.S., on a temporary basis on a compelling emergency situation. The allowable time in the U.S. corresponds to the time that the emergency or humanitarian situation dictates. The application is made on USCIS form I-131, with accompanying documentation explaining the emergency situation and paying all required filing fees. In addition, a USCIS form I-134, Affidavit of Support must be filed to determine that you will not become a public charge. You can file a re-parole request, for up to 90 days, by re-filing the same USCIS forms with the required filing fees.

If the emergency situation is for medical needs you must submit a physicians explanation of diagnosis and prognosis and how long the treatment will last, reasons why the home country or a neighboring country cannot provide the treatment and the cost of the treatment & how it will be paid. Also, you must submit how you will pay to return to your home country. If a minor needs medical treatment a parents written consent will be required. At Charleston USA Immigration Law Center we have experience in handling these type of cases.
