What is a T Visa?

A T Visa is a form of legal immigration relief (which means it helps undocumented people). It’s a way to slow down or stop deportation, and live and work legally in the US if you have been the victim of certain types of human trafficking. When you receive a T Visa, after a few years you can apply for a “green card” (permanent residency). A T Visa holder’s parents, siblings, and children can qualify for a T Visa, too. (Remember: you need to speak to an immigration attorney so they can help you determine whether you may be eligible for a T Visa and support you in applying if you are eligible.)
