This article explains a no-longer-in-effect program for undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens. On June 18, 2024, the Biden administration announced that it would be implementing new legal protections for undocumented spouses of United States citizens. The new Parole in Place (PIP) policy will provide temporary legal status and a potential path to U.S. citizenship for those who qualify.
''On November 7, 2024, a federal court in Texas ruled that the Biden administration lacked the authority to implement the Parole in Place program. It is unknown whether that decision will be appealed. It is recommended that individuals do not apply for this program at this time. Applications will still be accepted, but a decision will not be issued. If an application was approved under this process, it will not be affected by this decision. If an application for this program was submitted during this time, the application will remain pending and a decision will not be issued.''

Parole in Place is an immigration process used by the U.S. government that allows certain undocumented individuals to legally remain in the United States temporarily. The current PIP program grants temporary legal status to undocumented family members of U.S. military personnel, veterans, and enlistees. If an undocumented individual is granted PIP, they are granted temporary protection from deportation, work authorization, and temporary legal status that can lead to permanent residency. PIP also provides a path to citizenship. The main benefit that PIP provides is the ability to apply for legal status without leaving the country.
