There are positive changes in immigration policy, but there are no new immigration programs to apply for. The new year and the new federal administration brought good news about changes in immigration policy. President Biden and Congress have introduced new bills that provide important steps to bolster a disrupted immigration system and offer stability, fairness and citizenship to millions of immigrants in the country. These are critical changes, and it's no coincidence that New Yorkers are so excited about the news. At the same time, however, we must warn city dwellers to understand what these new trends can mean for them and their families and to beware of immigration fraud. There are many ways to protect yourself and your loved ones. Below we provide information that New Yorkers need to know to avoid immigration fraud. There are no new visas or applications to fill out. While we are pleased with the new positive trends in national immigration policy, New Yorkers should remember that there are currently no legislative changes, and therefore no new ways of obtaining citizenship have emerged. Some immigration service providers, such as notaries or dishonest lawyers, may try to take advantage of the post-news mess by offering immigrants living in New York City applications for non-existent visas or other unavailable legal benefits. How do I get free, safe immigration legal assistance? For more information and answers to questions about the latest trends in immigration policy, New Yorkers can contact ActionNYC at 800-354-0365, Monday through Friday, 9 am to 6 pm. ActionNYC offers city-funded, free and secure immigration legal assistance, including due diligence on immigration status and legal representation through a network of trusted community organizations. Help is provided in your language and includes information about other community resources and support services. ActionNYC services are available to all New Yorkers - immigration status doesn't matter. Only lawyers and accredited representatives, such as those working for non-profit organizations in the ActionNYC network, can provide legal advice on immigration matters or represent you in your immigration case. Scammers can promise green cards and other immigration benefits to get your money back. In particular, it is common for notaries or consultants to promise to help because they have an easy way to get a green card quickly (for example, through new bills from the Biden administration), or claim to have special influence over the immigration authorities. You shouldn't believe such promises. Lawyers and accredited representatives should always be honest with you about the options available and the risks involved, even if the news is disappointing. Here are some tips to avoid cheating: Do not sign blank or partially completed immigration forms and always read them carefully before signing. Remember, you are responsible for all documents you sign that are submitted to government agencies. Do not give the originals of your documents to anyone, only copies. Make copies of all forms submitted to government agencies on your behalf. Ask for a receipt showing the name, surname, and address of your service provider and the services you receive. If in doubt, consult another professional. Are you a victim of fraudulent activities? If you think someone is trying to cheat you, you can file a complaint. To do this, call 311 and say "immigration service provider" or visit the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) website at nyc.gov/ dcwp to file a complaint in your language. You do not need to provide your first name, last name or immigration status to file a complaint. Additional resources to help avoid cheating, including a resource guide in your language, can be found at nyc.gov/immigrantfraud. We continue to advocate for critical changes in immigration policy and want every New Yorker to enjoy the right to find and receive reliable information resources and the support they need.

It sounds unrealistic, but Lilya told me the exact date when he would return. He left home in tears, said that he "fell in love." I didn't blame him, but it hurt like crazy. I turned to Lilya, she immediately said that he was taken away deliberately, there was an energetic connection. We had three sessions. And on the 12th day, the day she said, he showed up. He said that he missed me, that everything was not as he thought. A month has passed since then. We are together again, and every day I thank God and Lilya for a second chance. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433 - regular communication
I still can't believe my life has changed so dramatically for the better. Before turning to the magician Zakhar, I felt as if someone had sucked all my energy out. Constant failures, unexplained illnesses, arguments with loved ones. All of this was literally suffocating me. I was in despair when I accidentally found Zakhar's contact information. I messaged him on Viber and asked for a diagnosis. I was truly amazed by his ability to accurately describe my circumstances and inner state without asking any questions. His diagnosis was so accurate that it left no doubt about his psychic abilities and great power. I asked him to help me. Zakhar described possible solutions to the problem. We agreed. Over the next month, he conducted work using magical practices. Results were noticeable within the first few weeks. My overall health improved, my emotional balance was restored, and previously existing barriers in various areas of my life began to disappear. By the end of the month, significant positive changes had occurred. Everything at work has returned to normal, and my relationship with my loved one has become more harmonious. Overall, I've gained a sense of inner stability and well-being. I'd like to highlight Zakhar's high level of professionalism and exceptional abilities. I highly recommend his services to anyone facing similar problems and seeking an effective solution. Zakhar's number is +380954248510.
I want to leave a review about a clairvoyant who truly knows her craft. I consulted her about personal issues—my relationship with my husband was on the verge of divorce. She immediately sensed the negativity surrounding us. She laid everything out clearly, eliminated the negativity, and gave me advice on what to do. After two weeks, our relationship really improved! She's a very sensitive and compassionate person. She works with Tarot cards and sees everything as it really is. Here's her number: +16463779379
I recently contacted Emelie for advice via Viber. I hesitated for a long time, but from the very first minute of our conversation, I knew I'd made the right choice. Emelie was a very warm, attentive, and understanding person. She immediately grasped the essence of my problem and helped me see the situation from a different perspective. During our conversation, I felt calm and confident—everything she said resonated deeply within me. She explained in detail what I should pay attention to and suggested the best course of action to change my life for the better. After our conversation, I felt a sense of lightness, as if a weight of doubt had been lifted from my shoulders. I especially liked that Emelie speaks sincerely, without judgment, without intimidating or imposing anything—on the contrary, she gives me inner support and confidence that everything can be changed if I act correctly. I am very grateful to her for her participation, support, and kind words. After our conversation, I felt a lot of things fall into place, and most importantly, I began to believe in myself and my abilities. If you need a hint right now, or just someone to listen and help you find answers, I sincerely recommend contacting Emelie. If you need a consultation, a fortune-telling, or a ritual, message her on Viber or WhatsApp: +380500147707
