Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS)

Consult with one of our legal experts concerning a minor residing in New York who necessitates the intervention of the Family Court due to instances of abuse, abandonment, or neglect by a parent. The child may qualify for Special Immigrant Juvenile (SIJ) classification, which, upon approval, establishes a route to lawful permanent residence, commonly referred to as a “green card,” along with expeditious acquisition of a work permit.
