Immigration Help for Persons Affected by Unforeseen Circumstances and Natural Disasters

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) may be able to help persons affected by unforeseen circumstances such as hurricanes. USCIS may be able to:

* waive fees due to an inability to pay;

* Expedite processing of employment authorization applications;

* Change your nonimmigrant status or extend your nonimmigrant status;

* Excuse your failure to apply for an extension of your nonimmigrant status before the period of
authorized stay expires;

* Expedite processing of advance parole requests;

* Assist those who could not timely respond to a Request for Evidence or a Notice of Intent to
Deny;

* Reschedule interviews and biometrics appointment with USCIS; and

* Expedite replacement of lost or damaged immigration or travel documents issued by USCIS,
such as a Permanent Resident Card (Green Card).

Call the National Customer Service Center at 800-375-5283 for additional information. Call The Prince Firm at 678-705-5409 for help explaining to USCIS how the impact of Hurricane Harvey or other disaster created your need for relief.
