Starting July 28, USCIS can send certain asylum cases directly to immigration court without ever interviewing you first.

This is not a denial without a hearing. But it means you may never get the chance to explain the weaknesses in your case before you are already in removal proceedings. If USCIS sees a deadline issue, a bar, or any eligibility problem โ€” they can refer it straight to a judge.

This applies to cases already pending and new ones being filed right now.

The days of submitting a bare application and planning to fill in the details later are over. Your declaration and your evidence have to be strong from the start. There is no fixing it on the back end if it goes straight to court.

If you have a pending asylum case or you are thinking about filing, call us before you submit anything.

Missing your immigration court hearing doesn't just delay your case. The judge issues a removal order without you in the room โ€” and most people don't find out until ICE is at their door or they get stopped at the border trying to travel.

I see this in Dallas immigration court more than I should. A notice went to an old address. Life got in the way. They thought they could reschedule. The hearing happened without them and the order was issued.

Sometimes we can fix it. Sometimes the window is already closed.

If you have a court date coming up or you're not sure whether you have one โ€” don't wait to find out the hard way.

Happy Friday with some good news.

CONGRATS to our clients, one received his green card through marriage-based immigration in just 4 months and now eligible to file for citizenship in 3 years! Another got his work permit.

Two families who can breathe a little easier this weekend. This is why we do this.

If you have been waiting to start your immigration process, get a consultation, it tells you exactly what your path looks like and how long it could take.

Missing a hearing you didnโ€™t even know about can end your case. In June alone, over 53,000 people were ordered deported in absentia โ€” up 55% from May โ€” and the average notice before these hearings is now down to just 42 days. Dallas is one of the courts seeing this spike.

If you have an open immigration case, donโ€™t wait for a letter that might not reach you. Check your hearing date today: call 1-800-898-7180 or go to acis.eoir.justice.gov.

Most families think about the immigration part. Almost nobody thinks about what happens on the other side.

Who pays rent when a parent is detained. Who can access the bank account. Who has legal authority to pick the children up from school or consent to a medical appointment. Without the right documents in place, even immediate family members may have no legal standing to do any of it.

I practice immigration law and estate planning. I see what happens to families who planned and families who didn't. The difference is a small packet of documents prepared before anything goes wrong.

Swipe through to see exactly what those documents are and why each one matters.

A federal court ruled on May 20, 2026 that ICE cannot routinely arrest, detain, or deport people with a pending U Visa, T Visa, or VAWA application.

This matters because the Trump administration reversed 30 years of protection in January 2025. People who did exactly what the law asked โ€” came forward, reported, applied โ€” were being treated as enforcement targets.

The court has now said that is not allowed.

If you have a pending case in any of these three categories, your position changed on May 20. Before any ICE check-in, court date, or biometrics appointment, talk to an attorney first.

Swipe through to understand which program applies to you and what the ruling actually means for your case.

A great client win to share. ๐ŸŽ‰

This family came to me only 5 days before their asylum interview. They had been with another attorney for over 9 years, no resolution, no answers, just waiting.

I prepped like it was going to trial. Walked into that interview ready. And after it was over, I sent the officer a full brief, the original filings, and laid out in detail exactly why this case qualified. Thatโ€™s the kind of prep Iโ€™d normally put into a court case, not an asylum interview. But I wasnโ€™t taking any chances with this one.

14 days later: APPROVED.

9 years of waiting. 5 days of prep. This is why I do this work.

Happy 4th of July from ARC Legal Services!

To every family we've represented, every client waiting on a case, every service member who earned their citizenship the hard way โ€” this day means something different for you than it does for a lot of people, and we know it.

We're grateful to do the work we do. Here's to more good news ahead.

Thinking about applying for citizenship? Don't wait on this one. ๐Ÿ‘‡

DHS just proposed raising the N-400 filing fee by up to 80% โ€” from $760 to $1,330 for a paper application. The reduced fee and fee waiver programs would disappear too, so families who currently qualify could end up paying thousands more.

Nothing has changed yet. This is still a proposal, open for public comment until August 24, 2026. Today's fees still apply โ€” for now.

If you already have your green card and meet the requirements, this is worth a real conversation about your timing. If you're not sure where you stand, that's what we're here for.
