Immigration Appeal

The Immigration Appeals Process in South Florida

Reliable Lawyers Fighting for Your Rights in St. Lucie & Martin Counties & Surrounding Areas

If you or a loved one have been denied naturalization, citizenship, a Green Card or permanent residence in the United States, our South Florida immigration attorney may be able to help. We may be able to file an appeal on your behalf in an attempt to secure the outcome you desire.

As fierce advocates for our clients, we understand how important each immigration case is to every family we meet. Many immigrants have lived in the South Florida area for years without being able to gain permanent legal status. Without this permanent residence status, many people face having their visa denied, or another issue that could result in the loss of their residential status and livelihood here in the U.S.

We Are Prepared to Handle the Entire Appeals Process

If you are going to file an appeal in your immigration case, we can help you present your case. We are prepared to go the length for you and can represent you in all areas of state or federal courts.

We are ready to handle immigration appeals in all of the following offices:

  • Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) - When you need to fight against a decision made about your application for immigrant benefits, you will appeal the decision at this department.
  • Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) - This board handles immigration law throughout the United States.
  • Federal Review of Immigration Appeals - If the BIA makes a decision on your case or appeal, you can take your case to the federal level in order to appeal the decision made. There is a strict timeline to follow, so don't wait to contact an immigration attorney at our firm.
  • Board of Alien Labor Certification Appeals - If you are a worker here in the United States, your immigration case and appeals will be heard in this department under the United States Department of Labor.

FAQ

Common Answers To Your Questions


  • I’m a foreign national studying in the U.S., can I stay within the country following graduation?
    To stay in the country following graduation, a student will need to obtain an H-1B temporary worker visa. Typically, graduates who work in a specialty field (such as a medical professional or engineer) will be able to obtain this visa with ease. To ensure that this process moves smoothly, it is recommended that students apply for this visa as early as possible to avoid penalties.
  • Can I become a citizen after I am granted permanent residency?
    Yes! If you live in the country for five years as a permanent resident, you will be able to obtain citizenship through naturalization. To be eligible for this, however, you must have been physically living in the country for at least half of those five years – and must not have left for a time period longer than six months.
  • I am looking to adopt a foreign child – how can I make the process as fast as possible?
    For those who are looking into adoption, but have yet to identify the child that they are interested in adopting, it is recommended that they file an Application for Advance Processing of Orphan Petition. This will allow for the portion relating to the approval of the parents to be completed by the time the child is chosen so that the adoption process can be expedited.
  • If I become a citizen, what are the privileges that I will experience?
    There are three primary privileges that citizens can experience. These include being able to vote in local, state and national elections; having the ability to obtain a passport; and sponsoring relatives in their efforts to become a permanent resident.
