‘‘(7) PAROLE.—If an alien detained pursuant to 
paragraph (6) is an applicant for admission, the 
Secretary of Homeland Security, in the Secretary’s 
discretion, may parole the alien under section 
212(d)(5) and may provide, notwithstanding such 
section, that the alien shall not be returned to cus-
tody unless either the alien violates the conditions of 
the alien’s parole or the alien’s removal becomes rea-
sonably foreseeable, but in no circumstance shall 
such alien be considered admitted. 
‘‘(8) ADDITIONAL RULES FOR DETENTION OR 
RELEASE OF CERTAIN ALIENS WHO HAVE MADE AN 
ENTRY.—The following procedures apply only with 
respect to an alien who has effected an entry into 
the United States. These procedures do not apply to 
any other alien detained pursuant to paragraph (6): 
‘‘(A) ESTABLISHMENT
OF
A
DETENTION 
REVIEW PROCESS FOR ALIENS WHO FULLY CO-
OPERATE WITH REMOVAL.—For an alien who 
has made all reasonable efforts to comply with 
a removal order and to cooperate fully with the 
Secretary of Homeland Security’s efforts to es-
tablish the alien’s identity and carry out the re-
moval order, including making timely applica-
tion in good faith for travel or other documents
necessary to the alien’s departure, and has not 
conspired or acted to prevent removal, the Sec-
retary shall establish an administrative review 
process to determine whether the alien should 
be detained or released on conditions. The Sec-
retary shall make a determination whether to 
release an alien after the removal period in ac-
cordance with subparagraph (B). The deter-
mination shall include consideration of any evi-
dence submitted by the alien, and may include 
consideration of any other evidence, including 
any information or assistance provided by the 
Secretary of State or other Federal official and 
any other information available to the Secretary 
of Homeland Security pertaining to the ability 
to remove the alien.

ing any extension of the removal period as 
provided in paragraph (1)(C)).

reasonably foreseeable future; or 
‘‘(bb) would be removed in 
the reasonably foreseeable future, 
or would have been removed, but 
for the alien’s failure or refusal 
to make all reasonable efforts to 
comply with the removal order,
