What Is Immigration Law

Immigration law covers a broad range of situations in which a foreign national enters the country of the United States, either temporarily or with the intention of settling there permanently (as a legal permanent resident or as a citizen). U.S. immigration law is based on four key principles:

Bringing in foreign nationals with the necessary talents to contribute to the American economy

To bring back together separated families

To protect refugees and those in danger

To broaden the diversity

Immigration Based on Family.

Immigrant employees may legitimately remain in the nation on a permanent or temporary placement in accordance with U.S. immigration law. For engineers, farmworkers, athletes, and other professions, there are many visas available depending on the sort of job. Many times, an employer would sponsor a person for a work visa, making it possible for them to lose their visa if they quit their job. For assistance with these and other work visa-related issues, contact an immigration attorney.
It could be feasible to change your student visa into an employment-based one if you are an international student on one.

Humanitaran Immigration.

People who migrate for humanitarian reasons are protected by immigration law. A refugee may be permitted to remain in the United States, for instance, if their country of origin is too unstable for them to return to or there is a risk of persecution. This kind of immigration petition must often be submitted in the applicant’s home country.

Similar to that, people who are already in the United States can apply for asylum. Within a year of entering the country, refugees must file an application for asylum. You can get assistance writing a claim for asylum or refugee status from an immigration attorney.

What Can a Lawyer for Immigration Do For You?

Before the Board of Immigration Appeals, Immigration Courts, federal circuit courts, and the USCIS, immigration attorneys represent people and/or companies. Regardless of the particulars of your case, it is their responsibility to interpret the law, assist you in understanding your rights, weigh your options, and guide you through each stage of the immigration process. They will specify exactly what kinds of documents you need to provide, such as birth certificates and proof of marriage, and are frequently in charge of creating the documentation on your behalf (or the behalf of your company). Your immigration attorney will gather all required documentation and draft statements and testimonies that are accurate, cogent, and understandable. Working with an experienced attorney can make all the difference because a lot of immigration applications depend on how you convey your narrative.
