Congratulations to our Associate Milica Filipovic for receiving CDAM's Exceptional Achievement Certificate at the Presidential Announcements during the 2018 Spring Conference.
This is the first year that CDAM is awarding the certificate. This recognition is given for "exceptional, noteworthy service" and Milica will be receiving it for her efforts in helping the Chaldean Community fight deportations.
We ask our clients, our colleagues, our peers, families, and friends, to embrace black history month, embrace diversity and work together towards a better, brighter, more inclusive future. We have come so far, but still have work to do.
While we, as attorneys, like to believe that justice is blind, we are all too aware that often justice is not color-blind. In fact, we have seen it and we have experienced it. Our pledge to our client's of every race and creed this month is to spread awareness and advocate zealously and relentlessly to work towards changing this injustice.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced yesterday that current beneficiaries of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) under El Salvador’s designation who want to maintain their status through the effective termination date of Sept. 9, 2019, must re-register between Jan. 18, 2018, and March 19, 2018.
In a rare move, the Trump administration has appealed to both the 9th Circuit and SCOTUS to determine the status of DACA.

Another I-601A, Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver, successfully approved. Lately Immigration cases are hard because they are heartbreaking and uphill battles. We need days like this to get us through those rough ones.
If you entered the United States without inspection and are married to a United States citizen call our office to see if you qualify for the provisional unlawful presence waiver based on a hardship. 313-551-3229.
We are sitting on the edge of our seats this week. With bond hearings still not scheduled for the Iraqis, with the fate of DACA in the balance, with a possible government shut down looming, we are ready and prepared to roll with the punches. Call 313-551-3229 if you would like to discuss your case with our competent staff and attorneys.
In this case history is not repeating itself, it was never fixed properly in the first place to eradicate the issues and the hatred. We are at a unique time now in our history where we yet again have the opportunity to to "inject a new dimension of love into the veins of our civilization."
On Tuesday night a Federal Judge ruled on DACA, holding that the plaintiffs were likely to suffer an irreparable harm and that they were likely to prevail on their claim that the rescission of DACA was arbitrary and capricious. It is unclear right now exactly what that could mean for DREAMERS with the pending March 5, 2018 deadline and renewals because it is likely that the government will appeal. We will keep you updated as more information becomes available. If you have individual questions call 313-551-3229.

BREAKING NEWS: The U.S. Government to end TPS for El Salvador in an 18 month wind down period. Approximately 200,000 people are protected with TPS from El Salvador and will be affected by this decision.
Great read about millennial attorneys. It is difficult sometimes when you see a young attorney to trust their experience and their knowledge, however just like the attorneys in the article, it is often their passion and their dedication that allow them to handle such "thorny, politically charged cases."
At Delgado Law, our greatest asset is our dedication. Its why we spend hours on cases, sacrifice time with our loved ones, and work tirelessly. At the end of the day, the billable hour isn't what defines you as an attorney, but by the fight you put up for justice for a person that has no more fight left in them. (Can you tell this post was published by the millennial?)
Call our office today for a consultation 313-551-3229 if this is the kind of fighter you are looking for.

Iraqi Case Update: Status conference will be held on January 11, 2017, to resolve issues as it relates to Iraqi detention and the Order issued yesterday by the Honorable Mark Goldsmith. More information on the process of bond consideration will be available at that time. As of now, the Order indicates that all detainees are to be released, if held for more than six months, by February 2, 2018, unless it is determined at a bond hearing that they are a flight risk or a threat to the community.
In the event of a bond hearing, if you have a loved one in detention call (313) 551-3229 for a consultation on what information and evidence would help your loved one succeed. Our office has worked diligently on this matter.
This is a step in the right direction. 4-0 for Petitioners!! The order issued by Judge Goldsmith is lengthy. Stay tuned to find out what this means for the Iraqi cases going go forward as we decipher it and bring you the update.

Congress recently passed a bill funding the government through to mid-January. Congress will have another option to provide protections for DREAMERs in mid-January.
Take a look at the video from AILA National (American Immigration Lawyers Association). The fight continues.

It's not too late to continue contacting your representatives urging them to support a clean Dream Act bill to protect the Dreamers!

A measure to provide legal status to “dreamers” may be the only immigration legislation passed in 2018, and even that isn’t a sure thing.
We know there are many families struggling to stay together this year. We also know there are many families who, for the first time, are separated, whether through deportation or detention. As hard as it is, and as heartbreaking as it is, we SEE you. We remain committed to fighting for you and for justice, but would like to take this time to recognize you.
While there is nothing we can say to make it better, we are thinking about you and are sending you our warmest thoughts and prayers this Christmas weekend.
If you are having a difficult time during this holiday season, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
This ruling means that "the administration can fully enforce its new restrictions on travel from eight nations, six of them predominantly Muslim. For now, most citizens of Iran, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Chad and North Korea will be barred from entering the United States, along with some groups of people from Venezuela."

The decision was a victory for the administration after its mixed success before the court over the summer, when justices considered and later dismissed disputes over the second version.
This is very troubling: "Citizenship and Immigration Services said it was in the process of sending letters to 900 people it had identified whose applications had arrived at the post office on time but not been officially received by the agency until after the deadline...At least 4,000 renewals were rejected because they were late, according to a government official in an Oct. 18 deposition in a federal lawsuit over the cancellation of DACA."
When there is a deadline, or an urgency for receiving the documents at a specific time, it is always best to use a private courier because you cannot sue the Post Office due to governmental immunity. This is what sets our office apart.

Lawyers had put the number of renewals rejected because of Postal Service problems closer to 100. Now their clients have to reapply for work permits.
We stand ready and willing to fight to protect DREAMers. This shouldn't have to be a debate, it is simply the right thing to do.

Democrats have rejected an offer from Senate Republicans to pair border security legislation with an immigration fix that excluded a path to citizenship.
In a report by the Wall Street Journal, although the administration hasn't enacted a whole-sale policy for employment-visa programs and congress hasn't enacted any new limits or changes either, "the administration is more closely scrutinizing applications for the high-skilled visa program known as H-1B, sending bck mor than one in four applications between January and August via "requests for further evidence."
The application process is everything, having a trained and skilled legal professional is critical in the application process. Call our office for a consultation to see if you qualify. 313-551-3229.

The Trump administration is adding hurdles and increasing scrutiny in the employment-visa application process, making it harder for businesses to hire foreign workers, and companies and immigration attorneys are bracing for more changes soon.
Never stop fighting for immigrant rights.
The march began at Hope College and ended with a rally at city hall on Tuesday.

We've seen a lot of misleading headlines and have had a few client's call worried. To be clear the mother who was sent to jail for seven days was not sent to jail because she did not want to vaccinate her child. The mother was sent to jail because she AGREED to vaccinate the child, entered into an ORDER and then violated the judge's order (again, that she agreed to). She was put in jail for contempt for failing to follow a previous order, not for not vaccinating her children.
This is why it's important that you understand consent judgements, and stipulations. If you are going through a nasty divorce or custody matter, call us so that you make sure you're wishes are expressed in your judgements! Call 313-551-3229
The immigration proposal brought forth by this administration far surpasses reasonable security measures.
Now is the time to act and call your legislators and tell them they cannot support such measures. Congress needs to act now to protect the DREAMERS but this is not the way.

Today the Trump Administration rescinded the DACA program with a wind-down period of 6 months.
Important Key notes:
*The government will no longer accept initial applications for DACA.
*Initial applications that were received prior to today and are currently pending will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
*If your DACA status expires between today and March 5, 2018, you must apply and have your application RECEIVED by USCIS before October 5, 2017 for consideration of renewal.
We wish we had better news, but rest assured we stand ready, willing and prepared to fight for you! Join us today at Clark Park at 5:30 for a peaceful rally and March to urge our representatives to support the DREAM and HOPE Act of 2017.

Eid Mubarak! Delgado Law is sending our best wishes to our clients and our communities in Dearborn and elsewhere celebrating Eid al-Adha and the end of the Hajj today. We are honored to fight for, stand behind, and know so many people of different races, religions, nationalities and creeds. May peace be with you all!
When we stand together, we are far more powerful.
We are here to lead the fight, but we need everybody that can to speak up! Tell your congress people why you believe they should fight for DACA. This is about the future of not just a whole generation of young, bright, beautiful minds, but about the fabric and growth of our communities.
President Donald Trump appears likely to pull the plug on DACA, the Obama-era program allowing young people who came to the U.S. illegally as children to remain here, several government officials said Friday.
UPDATE: Buses will be provided at Keys Grace Academy. Please join us as we fight for all communities affected by deportation. We are pleased to announce our associate, Milica Filipovic, will be speaking at the Rally!
Join us as we continue to fight for our immigrant community.
For those Iraqi Nationals detained on June 11, 2017, in the massive sweeps, the 90-day review process is approximately September 9, 2017.

Justice.
A federal court has found former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio guilty of criminal contempt for willfully violating a 2011 federal court order that required his agency to stop detaining people based solely on suspected civil immigration violations.
Joe Arpaio learned his lesson the hard way — no one, not even America’s so-called "toughest sheriff," is above the law.
This is a great step in the right direction. Each detainee will need individual representation to file their own individual motion to reopen.
Thank you judge Goldsmith for this just and compassionate ruling.
A federal judge in Detroit has issued preliminary injunction that will keep hundreds of Iraqis who are in the process of being deported in the country.
