ASISTA Practice Advisory: Addressing Late-Breaking Inadmissibility Grounds for U Visa Beneficiaries

Practice advisory

Addresses strategy when inadmissibility issues surface late in a U-visa case and explains how to preserve the case rather than treating the new issue as fatal.

Why it matters: Worth including because late-breaking inadmissibility problems create avoidable denials when counsel does not adjust the waiver strategy quickly enough.

Implications of Judulang v. Holder for LPRs Seeking § 212(c) Relief and for Other Individuals Challenging Arbitrary Agency Policies

Practice advisory

This Practice Advisory describes the Supreme Court’s decision in Judulang v. Holder, which rejected the BIA’s “comparable grounds” test for § 212(c) relief, and offers strategies for lawful permanent residents and others who may be affected by it.

Why it matters: Useful as a practitioner-oriented overview from American Immigration Council on Adjustment; review the source material for the most current authority and procedure.
