WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Testimonials

It has been quite a while of waiting time (17 months) to get my wife’s legal residential visa. I am incredibly grateful to your firm for the job done on the task already accomplished. Alejandra has been a very helpful person to complete said task. She was always on the outlook of our needs and the documents to be sent to Immigration, NVC and the consul in Guayaquil. I will recommend your firm and Alejandra to others in need of achieving their residence in good United States of America.


Raul “Raulo” Arrarte Moreyra

I have been in Mr. Walters' law office on more than one occasion concerning my wife's immigration matters. Most recently, I was assisted by the excellent Senior Paralegal Mr. Juan Carrillo. In one brief period and afternoon, Mr. Carrillo assisted my wife by applying for her Green Card. Two weeks later, I received a phone call from Mr. Carrillo. He had tracked the movement of the Green Card in the mail, and he announced the arrival of the Card on that afternoon. My wife and I have been pleased with the service of the Walters Law Office and Mr. Juan Carrillo.


John Striggles [Cortney JHS]

I gladly recommend Attorney David E. Walters and his great team of professionals who helped us with the legalization process for both my daughter and mine; since with their vast experience they were able to successfully conclude our legalization process

Release Date 05/28/2026 The Department of Homeland Security posted a Federal Register notice on the six-month automatic extension of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Lebanon, from May 28, 2026, through Nov. 27, 2026. Under the TPS statute, if the secretary of homeland security does not decide whether a country still qualifies for TPS at least 60 days before the country’s TPS designation expires, its TPS designation is automatically extended for six months. Former Secretary Noem and Secretary Mullin, who was sworn in on March 24, 2026, were unable to make an informed determination on Lebanon’s TPS designation by the March 28, 2026 statutory deadline due to the dynamic and quickly unfolding events in Lebanon that required a new review of country conditions and impacted the ability to provide information for Secretarial consideration. A six-month extension allows existing beneficiaries of TPS Lebanon to keep their TPS through Nov. 27, 2026, if they still meet the eligibility requirements for TPS. Employment Authorization Documents that were already issued under Lebanon’s TPS designation will automatically be valid through Nov. 27, 2026. Find more information about TPS at uscis.gov/tps .

Release Date 04/28/2026 The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is announcing an interim final rule to implement immigration fees and requirements from the H.R. 1 Reconciliation Act of 2025 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act). H.R. 1 created new fees to increase funding for immigration enforcement operations and ensure aliens pay for immigration services. On July 22, 2025, USCIS published a Federal Register notice implementing a filing fee for Form I-589, Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal , and an Annual Asylum Fee (AAF) to be paid each calendar year an asylum application remains pending. Annual Asylum Fee In an effort to satisfy the statutory mandate that DHS require payment of the AAF, the interim final rule establishes that if an alien does not pay the AAF within 30 days of notification, USCIS will reject their pending asylum application. If an alien does not have legal status in the U.S., USCIS will also initiate the alien’s removal. If USCIS rejects an alien’s asylum application, the following additional consequences apply: USCIS will deny any pending Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization , based on the asylum application; and Aliens who were approved to work based on the pending application will lose work authorization immediately. Additional Updates This rule also implements additional requirements outlined in H.R. 1: Form I-589 filing fee: USCIS will now keep the filing fee for Form I-589 if the agency rejects the form as improperly filed. Temporary Protected Status (TPS) employment authorization: USCIS is updating regulations limiting the employment authorization period for those under TPS to one year or the remaining TPS designation period, whichever is shorter. Form I-102, Application for Replacement/Initial Nonimmigrant Arrival-Departure Document , filing fee: The rule establishes a minimum $24 fee to file Form I-102, in addition to other required fees. The interim final rule is effective May 29, 2026. USCIS will reject any Form I-102 without the proper filing fee if it is postmarked on or after May 29, 2026. Additionally, USCIS will reject pending Form I-589 asylum applications for aliens who fail to pay the AAF effective May 29, 2026. DHS will receive public comments submitted on or before June 29, 2026.
