  • How do I obtain a U visa? You must have been a victim of a qualifying crime and have assisted in the investigation or prosecution of the crime that occurred in the United States. You must have suffered substantial harm as a result of being a victim of the crime and demonstrate that you are a person of good moral character.
  • Do I need a lawyer? It is important to work closely with an attorney if you plan to apply for a U visa because it can be complex and there are many requirements.
