NEWEST IN IMMIGRATION LEGISLATION

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.

When everything went wrong, clairvoyant Daria helped +16463779379

I am not writing for advertising, but because I was looking for reviews myself at the time. I was going through a very difficult period - I was fired from my job, I had money problems, and my relationship was falling apart. It was as if everything was falling apart. My sister said that maybe I was under negative energy or the evil eye. I didn't really believe it, but it was so bad that I decided to try. I found Daria, a clairvoyant and tarot reader. I wrote to her on Viber: +380996826298. She responded immediately and explained everything calmly. She did a diagnostic and said that I really was under negative energy. She did a cleansing and then helped me with my money channel. I didn't even expect it, but a couple of weeks later I was offered a new job, and it was better than the previous one. My mood and sleep improved. Daria doesn't "scare" you like many others, she doesn't push "urgent rituals", everything is honest. If it weren't for her, I don't know how I would have coped further. Her number: +16463779379 and Viber I wrote above. Thank her very much!

Daria helped to return the beloved and remove the curse

I turned to Daria when my personal life was falling apart before my eyes. My loved one left, and I couldn’t understand what was happening. Daria held a session and immediately said that I had a curse that prevented us from being together. She removed the negativity, and literally a week later my boyfriend returned, and we started all over again. I am very grateful to Daria for her help and accuracy! Number: +16463779379.
 

FORTUNE TELLER MARFA +380931150260 Viber WhatsApp Telegram

I turned to Marfa when I no longer knew where to turn. My husband had left me for another woman, and there was emptiness and pain at home. But the most amazing thing was that Marfa didn't even let me explain anything. She immediately said, "I see my rival standing next to me, I see how your path is blocked..." I got goosebumps because everything was exactly as she described! She explained exactly what happened, why he changed, and what I needed to do to get it all back. She didn't ask any questions; she saw everything herself, as if she were reading my soul. After the ritual, he wrote to me just a few days later. Now we're back together, and I thank Marfa every day for helping me bring love and warmth back into our home. She truly sees everything and helps from the heart. I'll leave her number: +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram
 

Thank you, my dear, you really help people!

I didn't believe in all this before—fortune-telling, rites, rituals... Until I faced tragedy myself. My husband left for another woman, simply packed his things and left. My world collapsed. I cried at night, couldn't eat or sleep. A friend gave me Marfa's number. I called—and from the first minute I felt that I was in the presence of a person with a true gift. She told me everything as it happened and performed a ritual to bring back my beloved. Two weeks later, he came of his own accord! He asked for forgiveness, saying that something "fell from his eyes." Now we live in perfect harmony, and every day I thank fate for meeting Marfa. Thank you, my dear, you really help people!
