Whether you represent employers, families, domestic relations clients, the accused, employees or students, more likely than not, you will encounter immigration issues in one form or another during the course of your practice. Heres an indispensable desk reference—to bring you up to speed on critical issues facing immigration, naturalization, deportation, visas—and more. The Immigration Practice Manual covers an extraordinary range of immigration-related topics, from E1/E2 nonimmigration visa procedures, to proceedings before the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the immigration consequences of criminal convictions.

This 34-chapter, guide is designed for those who represent immigrants in every possible situation, from aliens of extraordinary ability in the arts or sciences to victims of domestic abuse who are facing deportation. This practical manual gets you beyond the confusing acronyms, explaining in clear language how to:

– apply for treaty trader or treaty investor nonimmigrant visas to enable your client to stay in the U.S. for extended periods of time.

– assist your clients who have extraordinary abilities or are employed in “specialty occupations to qualify for visas.

– determine whether your client is eligible for U.S. government-approved exchange-visitor programs that enable foreign nationals to pursue studies in the United States.

– resolve problems arising when clients “age-out” under the provisions of the Child Status Protection Act

– represent your client in naturalization proceedings. ► understand various aspects of family-sponsored immigration. ► counsel your corporate client in bringing foreign national employees to the United States under the business visitor visa—and much more.
