Announcement
On January 2, 2013 USCIS announced that they would begin accepting the new provisional unlawful presence waiver applications from certain immediate relatives of United States citizens on March 4th, 2013. The new rule will reduce the amount of time families are separated from one another. Click here to find out more about the new rule.
Deportation & Removal
In situations where an individual is detained by ICE, we may offer guidance to determine whether the individual is bond eligible or is subject to mandatory detention. We have assisted many individuals in bond proceedings. Once an individual is released on bond, his proceedings will take place before an immigration judge at the immigration court.
