Recognised immigration organisations in New York

Every organisation on this site is an entry on the Executive Office for Immigration Review's recognition roster: the Department of Justice recognises the organisation, and representatives accredited to it may give immigration legal advice (8 CFR 1292.11-1292.20).

More

Entries are unclaimed public-register records reproduced as the roster publishes them, with the date the roster itself states. Recognition is FEDERAL: an organisation is not confined to the state its office sits in, so the state a page places it under is WHERE THE OFFICE IS and never a limit on whom it may act for. Recognition is federal, so an organisation listed here is not limited to New York: what the state says is where this office is, which is what matters when you need somewhere to walk into.
