If you ever had a previous immigration application or Immigration Court case, but are unsure of what happened or the status of that application, we can assist you in obtaining your file from the relevant immigration authorities by using a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Request. It is not unusual for a person to not know what was filed on their behalf in the past or not be able to get comprehensible information from USICs, ICE, CBP or the courts. We can help you request a copy of your file from these agencies, review the file, and provide our legal analysis of any issues you are uncertain about. Often a FOIA request is important when a person is unsure of what happened to them legally in the past with a stop by Customs and Border Patrol, or in an Immigration Court proceeding, but they want to go forward with a new immigration application. If you would like to talk with an attorney about a FOIA request, please contact our office for a consultation.
