Special Immigrant Juvenile Visas
Protecting Vulnerable Youth
Compassionate advocacy for children seeking safety and stability
When children and youth face abuse, neglect, or abandonment, they need a safe and stable environment to thrive. At Abogados W, we have significant experience representing minors through the Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS) process — a pathway designed specifically to protect immigrant children who have experienced hardships.
Our attorneys provide sensitive, caring, and highly knowledgeable guidance throughout the SIJS process, ensuring each minor's rights and best interests are always prioritized. From the initial court proceedings to obtaining permanent residency, we're committed to standing with you every step of the way.
Our Special Immigrant Juvenile Visa services include:
-
Evaluating eligibility and clearly explaining SIJS requirements
-
Representation in state family courts to obtain necessary orders confirming abuse, abandonment, or neglect
-
Preparing and filing the SIJS petition (Form I-360) with USCIS
-
Assisting minors through adjustment of status to obtain lawful permanent residency (green card)
-
Providing compassionate support and clear communication at every stage, ensuring comfort and confidence throughout the legal process
-
Collaboration with caregivers, guardians, and social services as needed, to support the well-being of the minor involved
-
Comprehensive, culturally-sensitive advocacy from start to finish
