The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is a U.S. federal law that grants the public the right to request access to records from any federal agency. FOIA is intended to promote transparency in government by ensuring that the public can obtain information about federal agency actions, decisions, and processes.

A USCIS Document Verification Request is a process used by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to verify the authenticity of documents submitted by individuals as part of their immigration applications. This verification helps ensure that the documents, such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, visas, passports, and employment records, are valid and that the information they contain is accurate.
A Petition for Alien Fiancé(e), officially known as Form I-129F, is a U.S. immigration form filed with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) by a U.S. citizen to bring their foreign fiancé(e) to the United States for marriage. This petition is the first step in obtaining a K-1 Fiancé(e) Visa, which allows the foreign fiancé(e) to enter the U.S. for a limited period, typically 90 days, during which the couple is expected to marry.
The Petition for Alien Relative, formally known as Form I-130, is a U.S. immigration form used by U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents to request a visa for certain eligible family members to immigrate to the United States. This petition serves as the first step in establishing a qualifying family relationship and initiating the process for the relative to obtain a visa or adjust their status to become a lawful permanent resident (green card holder) in the U.S.
The Advance Parole Travel Document is a permit issued by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) that allows certain non-citizens to re-enter the United States after traveling abroad without abandoning their immigration status or pending application. It is commonly used by individuals who have pending applications for adjustment of status (Form I-485) to become lawful permanent residents (green card holders).
Advance Permission to Enter as a Nonimmigrant is a type of pre-authorization that allows certain foreign nationals to enter the United States temporarily as nonimmigrants despite being otherwise inadmissible under U.S. immigration law. This permission is typically granted through a waiver of inadmissibility, allowing individuals who do not meet all legal entry requirements to apply for temporary entry on specific nonimmigrant visas.
A USCIS Document Verification A Self-Petitioning Spouse or Child of an Abusive U.S. Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident is an individual who can apply for immigration benefits independently, without the assistance or knowledge of their abusive family member, through a provision known as the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). This self-petition process, filed using Form I-360, allows spouses, children, and certain parents of abusive U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents to obtain lawful status, work authorization, and ultimately, the opportunity to apply for permanent residency (a green card).
Voluntary Abandonment of Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) Status occurs when a lawful permanent resident (green card holder) chooses to formally give up their LPR status. This decision is typically made when an individual decides to permanently live outside the United States or has no intention of maintaining permanent residency in the U.S.
Adjustment of Status is a process that allows certain eligible individuals already in the United States to apply for lawful permanent resident (LPR) status, or a green card, without having to leave the U.S. to complete visa processing at a U.S. consulate abroad. This process is typically available to those who meet specific eligibility requirements and are already physically present in the country, such as family members of U.S. citizens, employment-based immigrants, asylum seekers, or refugees.

A Waiver of Grounds of Inadmissibility is a legal mechanism that allows certain individuals who are otherwise ineligible to enter the United States to request permission to enter or remain in the country. Grounds of inadmissibility include various reasons, such as health-related issues, criminal history, immigration violations, misrepresentation, and more, that would typically prevent a person from being granted a visa or entering the U.S.

Removing Conditions on Permanent Resident Status is a process that certain conditional permanent residents must complete to transition from a two-year conditional green card to a ten-year, permanent green card. This status applies to individuals who obtained their residency through marriage to a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident and, at the time of approval, were married for less than two years.

Employment Authorization is a legal permission granted by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) that allows certain non-U.S. citizens to work in the United States. This authorization is typically granted through an Employment Authorization Document (EAD), also known as a work permit.

Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Renewals refers to the
process by which individuals previously approved for DACA can renew their
status to continue receiving protection from deportation and employment
authorization in the United States. DACA is a policy that allows certain undocumented individuals who were brought to the U.S. as children, known as “Dreamers,” to receive deferred action on their deportation and gain eligibility for work authorization.

An Affidavit of Support, officially known as Form I-864, is a document signed by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident who agrees to financially support an intending immigrant. This affidavit is required in family-based immigration cases and some employment-based cases to ensure the immigrant does not become a public charge (relying on government
assistance) after entering the U.S.

A Notice of Change of Address is a formal notification submitted by non-U.S. citizens residing in the United States to inform U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) of an update to their residential address. This requirement applies to most non-U.S. citizens, including lawful permanent
residents, visa holders, and others with pending immigration applications or
petitions. The notice is typically filed using Form AR-11, Alien’s Change of
Address Card, either online or by mail.

A Petition for U Nonimmigrant Status is a request submitted to U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) by certain non-U.S. citizens who are victims of qualifying criminal activities, seeking U visa status. The U visa is a temporary, nonimmigrant visa that provides protection and work
authorization to victims who have suffered substantial mental or physical abuse due to criminal activity and have cooperated with law enforcement in the investigation or prosecution of the crime.

Naturalization is the legal process by which a non-U.S. citizen voluntarily becomes a U.S. citizen after meeting specific eligibility requirements. This process is available to lawful permanent residents (green card holders) who fulfill criteria such as a minimum period of residency in the United States, good moral character, proficiency in English, knowledge of U.S. history and government, and attachment to the U.S. Constitution.

A Replacement Naturalization/Citizenship Document is an official copy of a previously issued naturalization or citizenship certificate that is provided by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) when the original
document is lost, stolen, damaged, or requires an update (such as a name
change). These certificates serve as legal proof of U.S. citizenship, which is
necessary for various purposes, including applying for a U.S. passport, obtaining employment, or verifying citizenship status.

To Apply for Citizenship in the United States, eligible lawful permanent residents (green card holders) must complete the naturalization process, which leads to becoming a U.S. citizen. This process generally requires applicants to meet specific criteria, including a minimum period of residency, good moral character, knowledge of English, and understanding of U.S. civics.

A Medical Certification for Disability Exceptions allows individuals applying for U.S. citizenship to request an exemption from the English and/or civics testing requirements of the naturalization process due to a physical or developmental disability or mental impairment. This exemption is requested through Form N-648, Medical Certification for Disability Exceptions.

Calculating Child Support involves determining the amount of financial
support one parent (typically the non-custodial parent) must provide to the
other (typically the custodial parent) to help cover the child’s living expenses.

Child support amounts are calculated based on guidelines set by state law, and while each state has its specific formula, common factors are typically considered:

1. Income of Both Parents: Both parents’ gross or net incomes are
considered to determine their financial capacity to support the child.
2. Custodial Arrangements: The number of days or nights the child spends with each parent can impact the support amount, as shared custody
arrangements may reduce the support obligation.
3. Number of Children: The number of children for whom support is being requested influences the calculation.
4. Expenses and Adjustments: Certain expenses, such as healthcare,
education, daycare, and special needs, can be factored into the
calculation. Other adjustments may be made for parents’ existing child
support obligations for children from other relationships.
5. Standard of Living Adjustments: Courts may consider the standard of living the child would have experienced if the parents had remained together, adjusting the support amount accordingly in some states.

Modifying Child Support is the legal process of requesting a change in an
existing child support order due to significant changes in circumstances affecting either parent or the child. This modification can involve either increasing or decreasing the amount of support one parent is required to pay.

Enforcing Child Support refers to the legal actions taken to ensure that a parent fulfills their court-ordered child support obligations. If a parent fails to make payments as required, various enforcement mechanisms can be initiated by the custodial parent, the state’s child support enforcement agency, or the family court.

A Resolution Statement for Divorce is a document outlining each spouse’s proposed terms for resolving key issues in their divorce, including property division, child custody, child support, spousal support (alimony), and other relevant matters. It’s often required during the divorce process, especially in cases involving contested issues, and serves as a foundation for negotiations or court decisions.

A Child Support Order is a legally binding court order that requires a non-custodial parent (or sometimes both parents) to provide financial support
for their child’s living expenses, well-being, and general care. Issued by a
family court, a child support order specifies the amount, frequency, and duration of the payments and may include guidelines for covering additional
expenses, such as healthcare, education, and extracurricular activities.

A Motion to Extend Dismissal Time is a legal request filed with the court to extend the time before a case is dismissed. This type of motion is commonly filed when a party needs more time to meet certain court requirements or complete actions related to the case, such as gathering evidence, completing discovery, or finalizing settlement negotiations. It effectively delays the case’s dismissal, allowing the parties additional time to fulfill these necessary steps.

A Motion to Appear Telephonically is a legal request submitted to the court by a party or their attorney to participate in a scheduled court hearing, conference, or proceeding via telephone or video call rather than appearing in
person. This motion is often filed when it is difficult or burdensome for the
party to appear in person due to reasons such as travel constraints, health
issues, work obligations, or distance from the court.

A Motion to Reinstate a Dismissed Case is a legal request submitted to the
court to reopen or reinstate a case that was previously dismissed. This motion
is typically filed when a party believes there is a valid reason to continue the
case, despite its prior dismissal, such as procedural errors, new evidence, or a mistake in judgment. Reinstatement can apply to cases dismissed either voluntarily or involuntarily.

A Request to Protect Address, sometimes called a Motion for Confidential
Address or Request for Address Confidentiality, is a legal filing that seeks to
keep a person’s address private in court records. This request is often made
by individuals who fear for their safety, such as victims of domestic violence, stalking, or harassment, who wish to avoid disclosing their residence to prevent potential harm.

Stipulations and/or Agreements are formal, mutually accepted terms or
conditions between parties in a legal case, often used to resolve specific
issues without the need for further court intervention. By reaching a stipulation or agreement, the parties acknowledge their consent to certain facts, actions, or arrangements, which the court then incorporates into the record or issues as an order.

Modify Legal Decision-Making is a legal process in which one or both parents request a change to an existing court order that defines who has the authority to make important decisions about a child’s life. In family law, “legal decision-making” (often referred to as “legal custody”) involves the right and responsibility to make major decisions for a child regarding education, healthcare, religious upbringing, and personal welfare.

Parenting Time refers to the scheduled periods during which each parent has the right to spend time with their child following a separation or divorce. It is sometimes also called “visitation” and is established through a parenting plan or court order, ensuring both parents have meaningful, ongoing interactions with  their child. Parenting time schedules outline when the child will be with each parent, helping provide stability and consistency in the child’s life.

Child Support is a financial obligation that one parent (often the non-custodial parent) is required to pay to the other parent to help cover the costs of raising their child after separation or divorce. The purpose of child support is to ensure that the child’s needs, such as housing, food, education, healthcare, and other essential expenses, are met, regardless of the parents’ marital status or living arrangements.

To Stop an Income Withholding Order (IWO) for child support, a formal
request must be made to the court or child support enforcement agency to terminate the order that automatically deducts child support payments from the paying parent’s wages. Income withholding orders are usually in place to ensure consistent payment, so stopping one typically requires demonstrating that the child support obligation has ended or that circumstances have changed.

Enforcing a Support Order involves taking legal steps to ensure that a parent complies with a court ordered obligation to pay child or spousal support. When a parent fails to meet their support obligations, enforcement actions may be pursued by the other parent, the state’s child support enforcement agency, or the court itself to secure overdue payments and ensure future compliance.

Enforcing a Parenting Time Order involves taking legal steps to ensure that both parents adhere to a court-ordered schedule for spending time with their child. If one parent is consistently denying the other parent their scheduled parenting time or violating the terms of the order, the affected parent can seek the court’s help to enforce the agreement and restore their access to the child.

A Request for an Income Withholding Order (IWO) is a formal petition submitted to the court or child support enforcement agency to have child or spousal support payments automatically deducted from the paying parent’s wages. This order directs the paying parent’s employer to withhold the
specified amount from their paycheck and send it directly to the recipient, ensuring timely and consistent support payments.
