U Visas
“U Visas” are available to victims of crimes. There are only a certain number granted per year, so you need to ensure your application is filed timely and contains lots of supporting documents and information. Hiring an experienced attorney is the best way to maximize your chances of success.
Qualifications
You can’t be a victim of just any crime to qualify. It must be one of the few specifically listed in the statute. You also must have assisted the government in prosecuting the offense.
