TPS Travel Policy - March 2023

USCIS is no longer using advance parole as the travel mechanism for TPS recipients.5 Under the new policy, USCIS has started issuing a new travel authorization document on Form I-512T that is unique to TPS holders. But note that individuals with pending initial applications for TPS, however, can continue to apply for travel permission through advance parole and are issued a Form I-512L. In either situation, individuals seeking travel permission through TPS still apply on Form I-131.
