The papers that control an immigration case
- Every government notice — NTAs, receipt notices, and appointment letters; the dates on them control everything.
- Passport and entry records — how and when each entry happened.
- A complete address and work history — applications ask, and consistency matters.
- Any criminal records with dispositions — your lawyer needs the certified outcome, not a summary.
- Copies of every prior application — what was said before must line up with what is said now.
How a participating law firm may review your situation
After you submit a free case review, your request is delivered to a participating California law firm — participating firms are paid advertisers, and each firm independently determines whether it can assist you. The firm may contact you to learn more and explain how California claims generally work. There is no cost to request a review, and submitting the form does not create an attorney-client relationship.
What information to prepare
- Your current immigration status, if known
- Any immigration documents you have (passport, visa, I-94, prior filings)
- Any notices from immigration authorities or the court
- Dates of entry and key events
- Family or employer information relevant to your case
- Any court dates or deadlines
Why timing matters
Immigration cases run on strict government and court deadlines — missing a filing date or a court hearing can have serious consequences, including removal. The sooner a participating immigration firm can review your situation, the more options may be available. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
