Immigration Services

The Immigration Services program of Catholic Charities of Northwest Florida serves individuals who need legal Immigration Services, regardless of race, religion, culture, ethnicity, ideology, or country of origin.

 

Our Immigration Office has multilingual and multicultural staff dedicated to anticipating and meeting the needs of individuals seeking legal immigration assistance.  We are committed to preserving the family unit by providing legal Immigration Services in a professional, ethical, and caring manner.

 

The agency is recognized by the U.S. Department of Justice, and the representatives are accredited by its Office of Legal Access Programs to represent clients before the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). We provide affordable, ethical, one-on-one attention, always having the client’s best interest.

 

The U.S. Immigration system is complex, overwhelming, and constantly changing. We provide accurate information regarding lawful paths to immigration relief, the rights of immigrants, and the harm that unscrupulous legal practitioners can cause.

Pope Francis

 

“ … we are called to show maximum respect for the dignity of each migrant; this entails accompanying and managing waves of migration as best we can, constructing bridges and not walls, expanding channels for a safe and regular migration. In whatever place we decide to build our future, in the country of our birth or elsewhere, the important thing is that there always be a community ready to welcome, protect, promote and integrate everyone, without distinctions and without excluding anyone."

Pope Francis - Rome, Saint John Lateran, May 11, 2023

 


 

“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.” - Mt 25:35-36
