Expert U Visa Immigration Consulting
What Is U Visa?
The U Visa is a powerful immigration solution designed to support victims of certain criminal activities. It serves as both a form of relief for survivors and a valuable tool for law enforcement to identify and prosecute offenders. At AJM Immigration, our expert immigration consulting team helps you navigate the U Visa application process with compassion and professionalism.
U Visa holders are granted temporary immigration status for up to four years, and some may later qualify for lawful permanent residency (Green Card). Let us guide you through your path to safety and legal status.
The U nonimmigrant status (U Visa) is a legal immigration status available to victims of certain crimes who have suffered physical or mental abuse and are willing to assist law enforcement in the investigation or prosecution of those crimes.
At AJM Immigration, we provide trusted immigration consulting and personalized visa services to help you apply for protection under the U Visa program. This status is designed to safeguard victims and empower law enforcement agencies to better investigate and prosecute cases involving domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, and other serious crimes.
Our team is here to support you every step of the way.
