What Is the Affirmative Relief Announcement?

On June 18, 2024, President Biden announced a series of immigration actions using the authority granted to him by our existing immigration laws. These actions will help certain undocumented individuals in the United States, including:

Spouses and children of U.S. citizens who have been living in the
United States for at least 10 years.

• You may be eligible to apply for your green card without leaving
the United States, if, as of June 17, 2024:
• You are in the United States after entering without
permission;
• You have lived in the United States for at least 10 years and
have never left;
• You are legally married to a U.S. citizen or have a qualifying
stepchild relationship with a U.S. citizen; and
• You do not have certain criminal history or pose a threat to
national security or public safety.

Please note that these programs have NOT YET begun. Details on how to apply are expected to be released by the end of the summer through a Federal Register notice.

This means:
• You CANNOT submit an application at this time.
• An early-filed application WILL BE REJECTED.
• You SHOULD NOT pay anyone a fee associated with filing an application at this time.
• BE PATIENT and take the time to find the right help. The wrong advice could harm your chances of staying in the United States, getting lawful status, or becoming a U.S. citizen.
• DON’T BE FOOLED by notarios and other consultants who promise immediate results or special solutions in order to steal your money. Many unscrupulous individuals will cost more than licensed attorneys! If you are unsure if someone is qualified to help, ask for proof of their credentials and retain a copy of that evidence.

This program could also be legally challenged, which could impact its implementation. This makes it even more important to have a qualified, knowledgeable attorney.

We encourage you to contact our office at 617-695-2220.
