Victim of a crime? U-visa can get you a green card.
Immigration Relief for Crime Victims (U-Visa Program) If you were the victim of a serious crime in the United States, immigration law may protect you — not punish you. In this episode, immigration attorney Kousha Adhami explains the U-Visa program, a powerful form of immigration relief for crime victims who cooperated with law enforcement. We break down who qualifies, what crimes count, what “substantial physical or mental harm” really means, and why the U-Visa is one of the strongest immigration protections available today. Many victims avoid calling the police because they fear deportation. The U-Visa was created to stop that fear — and to protect people who helped make their communities safer. You’ll also learn: Whether you can apply with a deportation order What law enforcement certification really means How U-Visa waivers forgive illegal entry and past violations The path from U-Visa → Work Permit → Green Card 👉 If you or a loved one may qualify, speak with us confidentially.
