Catholic Immigration Legal Services
Catholic Immigration Legal Services provides quality legal immigration assistance to low-income residents of Washington. We offer the following immigration services: family reunification, citizenship/naturalization (including fee and disability waivers), adjustments of status (Green Cards), travel documents, employment authorization, replacement of green cards, mock interviews, accompaniment to USCIS interviews, and resource/referral. The program also conducts community outreach to enhance awareness of the benefits of citizenship, and to encourage people to apply for it. Immigration and citizenship services are provided in Seattle, Bellevue, Mount Vernon (Skagit and Whatcom counties) and Everett (Snohomish County).
Catholic Immigration Legal Services is a BIA-recognized agency that assists in assuring high quality legal representation. The BIA is the administrative appellate court for immigration law in the United States. The staff of a BIA-recognized agency must have a certain level of experience in, and knowledge of, immigration law to be accredited by the BIA to provide immigration legal services. BIA-accreditation also ensures that caseworkers will not be engaged in the unauthorized practice of law.
The legal staff includes the Directing Attorney, three Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA)-Accredited representatives, two Immigration Specialists, and one office administrator. Our multi-lingual staff is fluent in Somali, Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Kmhmu, Laotian, Thai, Spanish and Burmese.
Catholic Immigration Legal Services is located at St. Edward Parish in Seattle’s Rainier Valley. Immigration offices are located in Bellevue, Everett, Mount Vernon and Seattle. To find out more about our services, make a donation, or to make an appointment about your immigration issues, call at 206-725-2090, ext. 10, Linda Chulaparn, or email us. Please note, we can only provide legal immigration services to people living in Washington state.
