U Visa Immigration Matters

Some survivors of qualifying crimes may have questions about U nonimmigrant status. The legal requirements, supporting certification and person's immigration history require a sensitive, individualized assessment.

Review eligibility and supporting evidence

Eligibility can involve a qualifying crime, resulting harm and helpfulness to a qualifying authority, among other requirements. A required law-enforcement certification is part of the process but does not itself grant status or guarantee approval.

Diyora Law Office PLLC can discuss the available history, relevant records and questions that may need additional analysis. No determination can be made from a general online description.

Safety, privacy and realistic expectations

Immigration history, possible inadmissibility questions and personal safety should be considered before deciding what to file. Procedures and waiting times can change, and no approval or timeframe is promised.

Do not share sensitive information about a crime or identifying documents through the website. Contact the office to arrange a consultation and discuss an appropriate means to provide information.

Schedule a Consultation

Every immigration matter depends on its own facts. A consultation can provide an opportunity to discuss possible next steps.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does every crime qualify for a U visa?

No. The applicable legal requirements and individual facts must be reviewed, including the crime involved and other eligibility criteria.

Does a signed certification guarantee approval?

No. USCIS evaluates the separate application and all requirements. Certification alone does not provide immigration status.

Can I discuss this without describing a crime online?

Yes. Call the office for a consultation arrangement rather than sending sensitive details through a public website.
