US Immigration: Petitioners with Prior Criminal Convictions
US Immigration: Petitioners with Prior Criminal Convictions
US Immigration law can be perplexing for some, in the recent past it was viewed by the public as more clear-cut. After 09/11/2001 the American government reorganized the agencies traditionally involved in the US Immigration process. The result was the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) which has jurisdiction over most of the agencies tasked with processing visas to America. That being said, the State Department also remains a significant agency in the visa process. Since the creation of new laws curbing immigrants' and petitioners' rights it would seem that more people are turning to American lawyers for assistance because an experienced American Immigration attorney is often able to provide insight about strategies to streamline the overall immigration process.
