Biden administration opens CBP One to Ukrainian migrants under Uniting for Ukraine parole program
The Biden administration expands CBP One beyond commercial use, allowing Ukrainians seeking Uniting for Ukraine travel authorization to submit personal information through the app before arriving at ports of entry. It is the first time CBP One is used for humanitarian parole purposes. The expansion comes as the Russian invasion of Ukraine drives mass displacement. This establishes the template for expanding CBP One to other nationalities and asylum seekers.
