Active Pro Bono Opportunities:
Seeking pro bono attorneys to help asylum seekers in the United States fill out an Application for Employment Authorization, prepare supporting documents, and file with USCIS. We estimate each matter will require approximately 5 - 10 hours of attorney time. Attorneys will be required to file a G-28 but representation will be limited to the employment authorization application.
Work In Progress:
