the agency specifies, "Noncitizens who are present in the United States without admission or parole may be considered for parole in place under this process." Admission means being legally authorized to be in the country with a green card, visa or other reasons.
According to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), for the new "Keeping Families Together" program, the spouse must have been physically in the United States for 10 years "without admission or parole;" "have no disqualifying criminal history and otherwise not deemed to be a threat to public safety, national security, or border security;" and undergo background checks.
Noncitizen stepchildren of U.S. citizens must have been under the age of 21 since last June, when the executive action was first announced; have a noncitizen parent married to a U.S. citizen before June; and have no disqualifying criminal history.
However, even the criminal history portion of the policy has a caveat. The USCIS added that an applicant with a criminal record can become eligible by "demonstrating positive factors that can be considered in overcoming this presumption and showing that they warrant a favorable exercise of discretion."
