In a notice published today in the Federal Register, USCIS announced the implementation of the Filipino World War II Veterans Parole (FWVP) policy, which was announced in a July 2015 White House report on modernizing and streamlining the immigration system. Starting on June 8, 2016, USCIS will allow certain Filipino World War II veteran family members who are beneficiaries of approved family-based immigrant visa petitions to apply for a discretionary grant of parole to come to the United States and wait for their immigrant visa to become available. USCIS will review each case individually to determine whether authorizing parole is appropriate.
