The T visa is a nonimmigrant visa category available to victims of human trafficking who have been subjected to severe forms of trafficking and who are present in the United States as a result of trafficking. The T visa allows victims to remain in the United States temporarily and provides them with a pathway to lawful permanent residency (green card) after meeting certain requirements.
Custody determinations are a critical component of obtaining Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS) visas for minors who have been abused, neglected, or abandoned by one or both parents. SIJS is a pathway to lawful permanent residency (green card) for eligible children under 21 years old who have been granted SIJS by a state court.
The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) allows certain battered spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents (LPRs) to file a self-petition for immigration benefits without the abuser’s knowledge or consent. VAWA self-petitioners may be eligible for lawful permanent residency (green card) if they can demonstrate that they have been subjected to battery or extreme cruelty by a U.S. citizen or LPR spouse, parent, or child.
Once the immigrant petition is approved, employees in the U.S. may apply for adjustment of status to become permanent residents without leaving the country. This process is generally applicable to those already in the U.S. in a valid nonimmigrant status.
