Overview of our National Campaign to Restore DACA’s Advance Parole.
Since 2012, DACA recipients have been able to apply for an Advance Parole travel authorization to travel abroad for humanitarian, employment, and/or educational purposes.
Obtaining this permit allowed DACA recipients to pursue employment opportunities that required foreign travel, to tend to loved ones suffering from serious illness, and to participate in educational programs abroad. However, since the Trump Administration’s order to rescind the DACA program on Sept. 5, 2017, DHS halted the approval of advance parole for DACA recipients.
Even though court orders have ordered continuation of the DACA program since January 2018, the Trump Administration has not reinstated the ability for DACA recipients to apply for Advance Parole. As a result of this administrative practice, DACA recipients have been unable to be with their loved ones during critical moments, and/or to take advantage of educational and employment opportunities abroad.
