USCIS offers immigration relief measures that may help people affected by unforeseen circumstances, such as the recent severe weather and flooding in areas of the Southern and Midwestern United States. The following measures may be available upon request:
- Change or extension of nonimmigrant status for an individual currently in the United States, even if the request is filed after the authorized period of admission has expired.
- Re-parole of individuals previously granted parole by USCIS.
- Expedited processing of advance parole requests.
- Expedited adjudication of requests for off-campus employment authorization for F-1 students experiencing severe economic hardship.
- Expedited adjudication of employment authorization applications, where appropriate.
- Consideration of fee waivers due to an inability to pay.
- Assistance for those who were scheduled for an immigration interview or who received a Request for Evidence or a Notice of Intent to Deny but were unable to appear for the interview or submit evidence or respond in a timely manner.
- Replacement of lost or damaged immigration or travel documents issued by USCIS, such as a Permanent Resident Card (Green Card).
