Applying for a T visa can be the first step in finding safety, hope, and healing.
If you are a survivor of trafficking, you may be eligible for a T visa. A T visa can allow you to remain in the country for up to four years while giving you access to crucial resources and services to begin rebuilding your life. However, applying for this type of visa can be an intimidating and lengthy process to manage on your own.
Fortunately, if you are located in the Raleigh, North Carolina region, you can turn to our experienced immigration attorneys at Arenas Immigration Law for the compassionate support you deserve. Since 2013, our local law firm has been deeply passionate about helping immigrants access the top-notch legal solutions they need, and we’re ready to stand by your side every step of the way.
To begin applying for a T visa, you’ll first need to confirm your eligibility and agree to comply with law enforcement to help stop human trafficking (when safe to do so). Furthermore, you must provide evidence of the trafficking, such as court documents, medical records, psychological evaluations, or personal statements. It’s also important to prove that you would suffer severe hardship if forced to return to your home country. Our attorneys can help you gather the necessary documents, fill out all required forms, and provide ongoing representation for your best interests.
Although T visas are ultimately meant to help survivors of labor or sex trafficking, the process of obtaining one can be complicated, lengthy, and emotionally taxing. This is why having a knowledgeable and tenacious attorney on your side is vital. Our team is here to guide you through the entire process, communicate on your behalf, and even help you file for a green card if you’d like to remain in the U.S. permanently.
