A January 5, 2005 federal court decision held that immigrants paroled into the U.S. who later married U.S. citizens are eligible for “green cards” and no longer must leave the U.S. because of immigration court proceedings. This First Circuit Court of Appeals decision is a landmark one for families. Immigrants not formally admitted to the U.S. who married citizens now can stay in the U.S. for green card processing and avoid the risks associated with having to depart and apply at a consulate abroad.
