A Humanitarian Purpose

BKR Line - Dark


The U-Visa may be available to you even if you aren't eligible for other options.

FREEDOM
 
BKR Line - Dark
 
The government created the U-Visa program in 2000 to protect undocumented immigrants and stop the criminals who target them.
FAMILIES
 
BKR Line - Dark
 
The immediate family members of U-Visa recipients also receive visas. 10,000 U-Visas are given out every year, not including the ones that go to families.

 

FORGIVENESS
 
BKR Line - Dark
 
Many people can't apply for other visas because they've committed certain crimes or been here illegally. Those restrictions don't apply to the U-Visa.
FUTURE
 
BKR Line - Dark
 
U-Visa recipients get work permits automatically.  After 3 years, they can apply for their permanent resident card.
