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.

I have been looking for a long time for someone who could really help in difficult situations and provide precise answers to the questions that worried me. There were difficulties in life, including in personal relationships and career, and I also felt some kind of energy blockage. At some point, I decided to contact Daria, and it turned out to be the right decision. The first thing that struck me was how accurately Daria described my current situation. She told me things that I did not even voice, and gave answers to all my questions. Right from the first fortune-telling, it was clear that she had unique abilities. Everything that she predicted about the future came true with amazing accuracy, and I felt much better after I received answers to my questions. But most importantly, Daria helped me get rid of the damage that was on me. For a long time, I could not understand why everything in life was so difficult and no matter how hard I tried, nothing worked. Daria immediately said that there was negative energy on me, and performed a powerful ritual to remove the damage. After that, I felt incredible relief, as if a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. And life began to improve. In addition, Daria helped me get back a person with whom I had lost contact a long time ago. I can’t even explain how it happened, but everything she talked about became reality. We are back in touch with this person, and our relationship began to develop in a completely new direction. I thought that everything was lost, but thanks to her help, everything became different. Daria is not just a clairvoyant, she is a truly powerful person who works for results. I have seen how she helps people, and I can confidently say that she is one of the best. All her predictions come true, her advice is valuable, and the energy work she does is incredibly powerful. If you are looking for a person who will not just tell you something general, but will really help you understand a difficult situation, bring harmony back to your life and take a step towards a bright future - contact Daria. Her number: +16463779379.
When a loved one leaves, it seems like the world is collapsing. My husband simply left, saying that he "fell out of love." I turned to Lilia, she ran a diagnostic and said that there was discord between us, caused by the intervention of another woman. Everything matched. Lilia helped to remove this negativity, performed a ritual to restore the relationship. A month later, my husband returned. We are now going to a family psychologist, but without Lilia, nothing would have worked out. Thank you! Her contacts (+380638055486 - this is her WhatsApp or Viber and there is a regular number where you can call her +19297133433)

When my husband left, I thought my life was over. The pain was so bad it was hard to breathe. A friend brought me to Lilia. She spoke to me so gently and carefully, helping me calm my soul and see my mistakes and my husband's pain, too. It wasn't instant magic—it was a profound understanding. And you know... he came back. Himself. With warmth, with conversation, with a desire to make things right. Thank you, Lilia. You saved my family. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
It would have been different in another life when my friend, Natalya, took the speeches, took the children and just went. She filed for separation, and it seemed to me that my world was destroyed. I spent months not finding my place, trying to talk to her, but she was like a wall. Our children, son and daughter, also suffered. I realized this and felt hopeless. Then I decided to go wild to Andriy’s molfar. I arrived before the new one, and this man... immediately cut me to the bone. He didn’t ask me about anything, but found out what had happened, naming names and important dates. This was not just hostile, but kindly shocking. Andriy waited a moment to help, but went ahead, which would be required at any time and in my opinion. Believe in Andriy’s strength, after such a diagnosis, it was lost, and often not food, fragments of smut, so that there was a result. Prote everything was supposed to be swedishly thought out. For many years now, we have been encouraging contacts via WhatsApp at Andria +380932169225. We conducted singing rituals that were based on ancient magical traditions and gave me the benefit of my behavior. After a couple of years, Natalya started working on the phone. Just like that. Vona said that she wanted to get together. We talked, and she cried, saying that she herself didn’t understand why she had done this, so that no one would hang around her. A week later she turned home, and we began to live together. Our hundreds have become more valuable, no matter what. Molfar Andriy took over our homeland. I will forever be grateful for those who turned me away from my squad and my children. If necessary, don’t waste an hour and write to Andriy at your number. We will definitely show you how best to do it, or even detail how you can ask for help.
