Frequently Asked Questions
Get Answers Now
Can I reopen a closed immigration case?
Yes, you may be able to file a motion to reopen if new evidence has come to light or if there was a legal or procedural error in your original case. Deadlines and requirements vary, so acting quickly is important.
What is FOIA and how does it help my case?
The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) allows you to request copies of your immigration records from government agencies. These records can reveal past decisions, missed notices, or errors that may strengthen your appeal, reopening, or defense.
