Frequently Asked Questions?

line_white-border

What visa am I eligible for?

With an array of visa options available in the U.S., discerning your eligibility and making a selection can prove challenging. Engaging an immigration attorney is the best approach to identifying the most suitable option. In certain instances, multiple options may apply. For instance, you could pursue a visa based on family sponsorship or qualify for a U visa as a victim of a crime. Consulting an attorney streamlines the process, enabling informed decisions by understanding each option’s advantages and disadvantages.

How do I sponsor a family member?

Sponsoring a family member necessitates Green Card holder or U.S. citizen status. Specific requisites, such as age and income thresholds, must be met. If eligibility conditions are satisfied, filing Form I-130 with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services for each intended beneficiary is required. The sponsored family member must also fulfill stipulated criteria, including a direct qualifying relationship and admission eligibility. Visas encompass both immediate relative and family-preference categories.

Will I have to have an interview with an immigration officer?

Interviews are often required as part of the immigration process, but they are increasingly being waived if your case is properly documented. Having the right team on your side from the beginning could save you the trouble and stress of appearing before an immigration officer. These are mandated for status adjustment applicants, those pursuing marriage-based immigration, though they are not required for nonimmigrant visas like the U visa or T visa. Interviews serve as a platform for immigration officials to delve into your current petition, background, country of origin, reasons for seeking entry or continued residence in the U.S., and other factors influencing admissibility. While an attorney’s presence during interviews isn’t always necessary, it can build confidence by ensuring a knowledgeable advocate is championing your rights.

What are my rights as an immigrant?

Immigrants don’t necessarily enjoy the same rights as U.S. citizens, yet certain protections are in place. These include the right to remain silent when questioned by police or other authorities, refusal of searches, and the right to an attorney when arrested by police or detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. While the right to refuse searches exists, it may be overridden if officers possess probable cause or reasonable suspicion of criminal activity.

Do I have to answer questions if I’m detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement?

No, you do not have to answer questions if you are stopped by Immigration and Customs Enforcement or other authorities. Depending on your location, identification may be required by providing your name, but queries regarding immigration status or other matters do not need to be addressed. Verbalizing your intent to exercise the right to remain silent is crucial, potentially coupled with expressing the desire for an attorney depending on circumstances. Having an attorney present is advisable when questioned or arrested by the police.

Am I allowed to have an interpreter?

In most cases, you will be able to have an interpreter throughout the immigration process, including at immigration hearings. A notable exception is the U.S. citizenship test and interview, where English proficiency evaluation is integral. Nevertheless, if an English exemption has been granted, interpreters and Native language tests are permissible. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services office has interpreters in 47 languages for immigrants navigating their cases.
