IMMIGRATION SERVICES
Relief for Children
Protection designed for children and young people.
OVERVIEW
Children who have been abused, abandoned, or neglected by a parent may qualify for Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS), which leads to a green card. The case starts with a state court order, often a custody order. We work with family law attorneys to obtain it, then file with USCIS, whether or not the child is in removal proceedings.
We also represent children who arrived alone and are seeking asylum, which follows its own procedures, and young people facing removal.
HOW WE HELP
