The U-Visa

If you’ve been a victim of certain crimes and helped law enforcement, you may qualify for a U Visa and lawful status in the United States.

What is the U Visa?

The U Visa is a form of immigration protection available to individuals who have suffered substantial physical or mental abuse as a result of certain crimes and have cooperated with law enforcement in the investigation or prosecution. It provides a pathway to lawful status and, eventually, permanent residence for eligible applicants.

• You were the victim of a qualifying crime

• You suffered physical or emotional harm

• A law enforcement agency is willing to certify your cooperation

What Crimes Qualify?

• Sexual assault

• Stalking

• Witness tampering

This is not a complete list. Other crimes may qualify.
