Humanitarian visas are designed for individuals who need protection in the United States due to urgent humanitarian reasons, such as fleeing violence, abuse, or dire circumstances. The following visas are offered under humanitarian grounds:
Parole Visa
The Parole Visa allows individuals to enter the U.S. temporarily due to urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public interest. It is granted for specific circumstances like medical emergencies or safety concerns, and does not lead directly to permanent residency.
U-Visa
The U-Visa is for victims of qualifying crimes in the U.S. who cooperate with law enforcement in the investigation or prosecution of the crime. This visa provides temporary legal status and work authorization, and potential eligibility for a green card after three years.
VAWA Visa
The VAWA Visa offers protection to individuals who have been victims of abuse by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident family member. This visa allows victims of domestic violence to self-petition for legal status and potential permanent residency without the abuser’s involvement.
