Humanitarian Visas
Are you seeking protection in the US? Bashi Law is here to help.
We’ll Help You with Humanitarian Parole
If you are currently abroad and find yourself in a dangerous or life-threatening situation, the United States offers forms of relief through humanitarian visas. One of these options is Humanitarian Parole, which allows you to temporarily enter the U.S. for urgent reasons, such as medical emergencies, family crises, or other humanitarian concerns. At Bashi Law, PLLC, we are committed to providing guidance and support throughout the entire process of securing humanitarian relief.
Humanitarian Parole
Humanitarian Parole allows non-citizens to temporarily enter the United States under urgent circumstances. It is typically granted for situations such as:
Medical Needs: If you or a loved one requires urgent medical treatment in the U.S., Humanitarian Parole may be available to facilitate one-time entry for treatment.
Family Emergencies: Humanitarian Parole may also allow you to visit an ill family member or attend a family member’s funeral in the U.S.
Other Humanitarian Grounds: In cases where returning to your home country poses a threat to your safety, Humanitarian Parole may provide temporary refuge.
At Bashi Law, PLLC, we can assist with gathering the appropriate evidence, preparing the necessary documentation, and advising on the specific requirements to submit a strong application. In urgent cases, such as medical emergencies, we can also expedite your request through expedited processing.
T-Visas for Victims of Human Trafficking
Victims of human trafficking face immense challenges and dangers, but the T-Visa offers a pathway to protection and recovery. This visa provides temporary legal status and work authorization for up to four years, and it may be available to family members who also meet eligibility requirements.
At Bashi Law, PLLC, we understand the sensitive and difficult nature of trafficking cases. Our team will work closely with you, providing compassionate and thorough legal representation to ensure you receive the support and relief you deserve. A T-Visa can help you:
Secure legal work authorization.
Stay in the U.S. temporarily (up to four years).
Apply for certain eligible family members to also obtain temporary status.
VAWA (Violence Against Women Act) for Victims of Abuse
The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) provides relief for victims of domestic violence, regardless of gender. If you are suffering from physical, emotional, financial, or psychological abuse by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident family member, you may be eligible for a humanitarian visa under VAWA. This also extends to those whose abuser is a member of the uniformed services or a U.S. government employee.
We understand that dealing with abuse is incredibly difficult, but Bashi Law, PLLC is here to help you safely navigate the legal process. We will assist you in gathering evidence, filing the appropriate paperwork, and advocating on your behalf to help you break free from your abuser and find safety and protection in the U.S.
U Visas for Victims of Crime
If you or a minor family member have been a victim of a serious crime in the U.S., you may qualify for a U Visa. The U Visa provides temporary legal status and work authorization for up to four years, and it can offer a sense of safety and security to victims of crimes such as domestic violence, sexual assault, or human trafficking.
The most critical requirement for a U Visa is that the crime must have been reported to U.S. law enforcement. Cooperation with law enforcement is essential to qualify. The U Visa helps victims by:
Granting temporary legal status.
Providing work authorization.
Offering protection for up to four years.
At Bashi Law, PLLC, we will guide you through the application process, ensure you meet all legal requirements, and work closely with you to advocate for your rights and protection.
