Our Temporary Protected Status Legal Services

At The Law Office of Cristea & Tatti, we offer comprehensive legal services to assist with Temporary Protected Status cases. Whether you’re applying for TPS for the first time or seeking to extend your current status, we are here to support you. Our services include:

Initial TPS Application
If you or a loved one is eligible for TPS, the first step is submitting a comprehensive application to USCIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services). We assist in preparing and filing the application, ensuring that all necessary documentation is submitted correctly and promptly to maximize your chances of approval.
TPS Renewal and Extension
If you currently hold TPS and need to renew or extend your status, we can help ensure that your application is filed before your current status expires. Our attorneys will keep track of all deadlines and help you meet the requirements for maintaining continuous protection in the U.S.
TPS Denials and Appeals
In some cases, TPS applications can be denied. If your application has been rejected or if you believe your case has not been handled properly, we offer expert representation to help you appeal the decision. Our lawyers will review your case and work to resolve any issues with USCIS or other immigration authorities.
Adjustment of Status
In certain circumstances, individuals with TPS may be eligible to adjust their status to permanent residency. If this is an option for you, our attorneys will explain the requirements and assist in filing for an adjustment of status application, helping you transition from temporary protection to permanent legal status.
Family-Based Immigration Services
TPS holders often wish to bring their families to the U.S. We can guide you through family-based immigration petitions, helping you reunite with loved ones and provide the support they need to join you under TPS or permanent residency status.
Defense Against Deportation
If you are facing deportation while holding TPS, it’s important to act quickly. Our attorneys will assess your situation, explore potential defenses, and represent you in court to fight against removal and protect your right to remain in the U.S.

The Temporary Protected Status Process

The process of obtaining or renewing Temporary Protected Status can be complex, but with the help of an experienced TPS lawyer, you can navigate it successfully. Here’s an overview of the steps involved:

Eligibility Determination
The first step is determining whether you meet the eligibility requirements for TPS. This includes proving that you are from a country designated for TPS and that you meet all the conditions outlined by USCIS. Our attorneys will help evaluate your eligibility and guide you through the process.
Filing the Application
Once eligibility is established, we assist in preparing the required application forms, including the TPS application and any supporting documents. Our team will ensure that all forms are filled out accurately and submitted within the correct time frame.
Biometrics and Background Checks
After submitting your application, you may be required to attend a biometrics appointment for fingerprinting and background checks. We’ll keep you informed about what to expect and help you prepare for the process.
Approval or Denial
After USCIS reviews your application, it will issue a decision. If approved, you will receive Temporary Protected Status for the designated period. If denied, we will review the decision and assist with any necessary appeals or motions.
Maintaining and Renewing TPS
TPS is granted for a limited time, and it’s essential to keep track of the renewal process. Our attorneys will ensure that your renewal application is filed on time to prevent any lapse in your protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

We have gathered important information that could be helpful for you. If you can’t find what you are looking for, contact us.

HOW LONG WILL MY CASE TAKE?

It depends on the county where the Family Court is located. For example, cases filed in Nassau or Suffolk counties are resolved within three to six months.

HOW MANY TIMES WILL I HAVE TO GO TO COURT?

Most SIJS cases require two appearances before a Family Court judge.

WHAT REQUIREMENTS MUST I MEET TO QUALIFY FOR SIJS?

You must be single, under 21 years of age, demonstrate that you were abused, abandoned, or neglected by one or both parents when living with them. You must have a proposed guardian who looks out for your best interests, and is approved by the Family Court judge. Lastly, the Family Court judge must determine that it is in the minor’s best interest not to be reunited with one or both parents.

WHY AM I GOING TO FAMILY COURT IF I HAVE AN IMMIGRATION COURT CASE?

SIJS is a bifurcated process. A Family Court judge must first determine that you meet the requirements noted above. Once proceedings in Family Court are concluded, an immigration judge can then close the case and permit you to continue adjusting with USCIS. In the end, you will be granted legal permanent residence (LPR).

HOW CAN I GET A WORK PERMIT?

Certain applications, such as asylum, permit you to apply for a work permit once the waiting period is satisfied. Depending on the application submitted or action taken by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, it comes with work permit benefits.
