Human trafficking survivors may feel unable to leave because of threats, fear, financial control, or emotional pressure. Survivors brought to or kept in the United States through trafficking may qualify for a T visa. This visa can allow them to remain in the country. Michael Ibrahim Law Office, LLC, helps people in Chicago, Illinois, understand the requirements and prepare supporting evidence.
Eligibility depends on the facts of each case. The government will consider the type of trafficking involved and why the survivor is in the United States. Some applicants may also need to cooperate with reasonable law enforcement requests. However, exceptions may apply.
Trafficking cases do not always come with clear or complete records. Evidence may include the survivor’s personal statement, text messages, financial records, medical or counseling documents, police reports, and statements from people who know what happened. Missing traditional documents does not necessarily prevent someone from seeking protection.
