A family member really needs to go home, for a visit.

All of my meaningful/relevant political contacts have retired.

It has been about 25 years. Had to complete Form I-512 & pay $100. The parole has to be renewed every year. We had to take it to the office and they processed it the same day. That was 25 years ago. Also Customs at OHare were assholes and made my wife sit for 5 hours while they allowed everyone else to proceed thru customs.

Yeah…. We filed the form, and were told 13 months…
