Recommendation for Immigration Attorney in S. Florida

[Tacos 70]

My wife is now in the fourth year of waiting for her AOS. We filed this past September (2024) for the renewal of her work authorization (which she received) and advanced parole, which hasn’t been received and could be another year of waiting. We’re contemplating going to speak with an immigration lawyer about our case to see what we should do. We live in South Florida (Fort Lauderdale area), looking for any recommendations for attorneys.

What does this processing time mean?

We generally process cases in the order we receive them. This processing time is based on how long it took us to complete 80% of adjudicated cases over the past six months. Each case is unique, and some cases may take longer than others. Processing times should be used as a reference point, not an absolute measure of how long your case will take to be completed.

When can I ask about my case?

Many routine factors impact how quickly a case is processed. We only allow inquiries for cases that are well outside the processing time listed above.
