Biden Set to Shield Undocumented Spouses of US Citizens from Deportation, Grant Work Rights

President Joe Biden is set to unveil expansive executive action on Tuesday aimed at protecting certain undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens from deportation and granting them permission to work legally while pursuing citizenship, sources familiar with the plans report. The policy is targeted at individuals who have resided in the United States for a decade or more, leveraging an existing legal mechanism called “parole in place” to provide safeguards against deportation.

This initiative underscores Biden’s administration’s commitment to immigration reform, particularly in providing a pathway to legal status for long-term residents with familial ties to U.S. citizens. By utilizing “parole in place,” the policy aims to offer stability and opportunity to eligible undocumented individuals, facilitating their integration into society as they navigate the process towards citizenship.
