USCIS Revising form I-131 Instructions to Include Guidance for recipients’ of Deferred Action under Childhood Arrivals (DACA) ability to Request Advance Parole Under Certain Circumstances

USCIS is revising the form’s instructions to include clear guidance regarding recipients’ of Deferred Action under Childhood Arrivals (DACA) ability to request advance parole documents under certain circumstances as provided under the memorandum issued by the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security on June 15, 2012, and the implementation guidance that derives from it. USCIS is also reporting an increase in the number of respondents associated with this information collection as DACA recipients that can establish a need to travel outside of the United States based on humanitarian, employment or education reasons will be able to request advance parole documents.
