What is a T Visa?
The T visa is a nonimmigrant visa specifically designed to protect victims of human trafficking. It provides:
Protection from deportation:You will be granted legal status in the U.S. and protected from removal proceedings.
Work authorization: You will be eligible to apply for a work permit and legally work in the United States.
Pathway to a green card: After three years as a T visa holder, you may be eligible to apply for a green card (lawful permanent residence).
Access to benefits and services: You may be eligible for certain public benefits and services, such as healthcare and counseling.
Who is Eligible for a T Visa?
To be eligible for a T visa, you must meet the following requirements:
Victim of a Severe Form of Trafficking: You must have been a victim of a severe form of trafficking in persons, which includes sex trafficking or labor trafficking.
Presence in the U.S. Due to Trafficking: You must be physically present in the United States, American Samoa, or the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, or at a port of entry, as a result of being trafficked.
Cooperation with Law Enforcement (or an Exemption): You must have complied with any reasonable request for assistance in the investigation or prosecution of human trafficking, unless you were under 18 years of age or unable to cooperate due to trauma.
Suffering Extreme Hardship: You must demonstrate that you would suffer extreme hardship involving unusual and severe harm if removed from the United States.
The T Visa Application Process
Applying for a T visa can seem daunting, especially when you’re recovering from a traumatic experience. But we’re here to guide you through every step of the way.
Filing Form I-914:
First, you’ll need to complete and file Form I-914, Application for T Nonimmigrant Status, with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This form requires detailed information about your situation and the trafficking you experienced.
Providing Evidence:
We can help you gather the necessary evidence to support your claim, such as law enforcement reports, medical records, and any other documentation that demonstrates the abuse you endured.
USCIS Adjudication:
Once your application is complete, USCIS will review it and make a decision.
Adjustment of Status (if applicable):
We will be there to advocate for you and ensure your rights are protected throughout the process.

I came for a second opinion on my asylum claim. Raisa told me the potential problems that could be raised by the dhs about my military service. Super helpful.

I had a phenomenal experience with Attorney Raisa Cohen. I was facing removal proceedings and didn’t know where to turn. My prior attorney was disbarred, and I went to Attorney Raisa Cohen for help. She took on my case and fought hard for me. Her courtroom skills and legal strategy were incredible. I’ll always be tremendously grateful for her help and highly recommend!
– Rosemary
My case manager Diane Mahko and attorney Daniel Levy were great to work with. Diane, especially, was amazing. She made the process simple, provided excellent directions on what paperwork was needed, how to obtain it, and was always timely in replying to questions. If I need any assistance with Canadian immigration in the future they will be my first call.

I called Cohen Law for some advice and was genuinely impressed by how kind and helpful they were. I explained my situation and let them know I couldn’t afford to hire a lawyer, and despite that, I was given thoughtful, honest, and very helpful advice. I truly appreciated the time and care they showed me. Highly recommend them for anyone needing legal guidance!

I had the pleasure of speaking with Raisa Cohen, and she provided me with clear and valuable legal guidance. She patiently clarified important points, laid out a clear roadmap for me, and summarized everything in a way that was easy to understand. Her professionalism and dedication were truly impressive. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking reliable legal advice.
– Sayed
I must say, they made easier than I expected, very fast response times, clear guidance and affordable. Victoria (citizenship) and Tereza (passport) were very professional and polite, again this was easier than obtaining documents from the USA DMV. Use Cohen if you want knowledgeable professionals! Thanks again
