Establishes procedures for juvenile courts to issue orders enabling immigrant juveniles to apply for Special Immigrant Juvenile Status.

This bill amends Title 42 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to create procedures for juvenile courts to issue "predicate orders" for immigrant juveniles seeking Special Immigrant Juvenile Status. These orders must contain factual findings regarding the juvenile's circumstances, such as whether reunification with parents is not viable due to abuse or neglect. The juvenile court has jurisdiction to issue these orders if the juvenile is under 21 years old.
