Q and A: Immigration Relief for Victims of Human Trafficking and Other Crimes [pdf]

This Q and A was developed by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and the DHS Blue Campaign to assist law enforcement officials (e.g. police, prosecutors, child or adult protective services) in U-visa certification and T visa endorsement. Information includes frequently asked questions on immigration relief for victims for human trafficking and other crimes. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is responsible for administering immigration benefits to victims of human trafficking and other serious crimes, in addition to upholding U.S. immigration law. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) adjudicates T and U visas, which help protect immigrant victims of human trafficking and other crimes.
