Immigration Mental Health Evaluations
What Is an Immigration Mental Health Evaluation?
An immigration psychological evaluation is a detailed forensic report prepared by a licensed mental health professional. It involves a clinical interview, use of psychological assessments, and a review of personal and cultural history. The purpose is to provide attorneys and the court with clear, objective documentation of the psychological, emotional, and social factors that may influence an immigration case.
Immigration Evaluations Provided:
U Visa – For victims of certain crimes who have experienced significant abuse. The evaluation documents the psychological effects of trauma.
T Visa – For victims of human trafficking. The report highlights the emotional and psychological impact of exploitation.
VAWA Self-Petition – For survivors of domestic violence by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident. The evaluation describes the emotional toll of abuse and its impact.
Asylum – For individuals fleeing persecution in their home country. The evaluation explains the psychological effects of past persecution or fear of harm.
Extreme Hardship Waiver – For cases where family separation would cause severe emotional or psychological hardship. The evaluation outlines how removal would affect family well-being and stability.
