Travel to U.S. Territories such as the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico by people who have been granted deferred status by USCIS is similar to travel to any one of the 50 states. However, we strongly recommend that you carry your USCIS documents showing deferred status with you in order to facilitate your ability to return to your residence. Please note that depending on the location of your travels, you may be subject to certain processes, including customs inspections.

Please be aware that for travel to any location other than the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, or the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, you must have advance parole from USCIS prior to departure, just as with any other international travel. Additional information may be found on USCIS' web site.
