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 turned to a clairvoyant on the advice of a friend. Honestly, I never believed in such things before. But when she started the layout, she immediately touched on the most painful moments - about family and work. She even named the person with whom I had a conflict, I was simply stunned. Many pieces of advice helped, and now I understand why everything turned out this way for me. Now I treat fortune telling completely differently. Here's who needs the clairvoyant's number +16463779379

I didn't believe in magic or clairvoyance. But when my husband left after 12 years of marriage, leaving me with a child and the words "I don't love you anymore," I was ready for anything. I felt like my life was over. I accidentally found Lilia online. I wrote to her out of desperation. She didn't promise anything, only said, "If the soul feels, then all is not lost." And the work began. Two weeks later, he called. First about business, then just to talk. And a month later, he stood on the doorstep with flowers and said he'd made the biggest mistake of his life. I sobbed. Thank you, Lilia. You're like an angel who came at the darkest moment. Contacts +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433

For a long time I was timid to see what I didn’t know anymore. She laughed in public and saw everything as good, if in the middle everything was screaming. I don’t feel anyone. Not bothering anyone, as I fall asleep with the phone by my hand, hoping for information. I’m throwing myself away and first, I’m looking for something, but there’s nothing. Not in calls, not in dreams, not in life. He just... knew. No explanation. Without drain. And most importantly, I don’t want to share this knowledge with anyone. What should I say? Why do I love someone who never said goodbye? I found out about Martha when I was already giving up. I wish I had thrown my name away. I didn't believe it. Already at night, if I had cut the merry again, I wrote. Just like that. Without refreshment. And she confirmed it. Calm down. M'yako. Exactly. You haven’t lost your mind, she said. You just love. It’s not worth it for you to die in this love. Give me three days. And I gave it. On the fourth day I woke up and in the notifications it was: Can I come? I need you to help me. Vin. The one who knows. The one I checked. Priyshov. And marveling at me like that, nothing happened. I don’t know what she earned. I don’t know what to do with her. But I know: there’s a charge over there. It's dark there. It's more painful there. Vaughn can smell it. And when you think it’s over, you just whisper: No. Whole cob.
