Barrera Legal Group is proud to announce another significant victory for our client, a Cuban national, whose removal proceedings have been successfully terminated. After thorough advocacy, we convinced the Department of Homeland Security to exercise prosecutorial discretion, recognizing our client’s future eligibility in 2025 for a green card under the Cuban Adjustment Act.
The Cuban Adjustment Act provides a unique pathway for Cuban nationals to obtain lawful permanent residency in the United States. To qualify, an individual must have been physically present in the U.S. for at least one year after being admitted or paroled and must be admissible to the United States as an immigrant. Our client met these criteria and, with our assistance, will be eligible to apply for a green card in 2025.
By obtaining the termination of the removal proceedings, we eliminated the immediate risk of deportation, allowing our client to remain in the U.S. and continue on the path to lawful permanent residency. This case underscores the importance of knowledgeable legal representation in complex immigration matters.
At Barrera Legal Group, we are committed to protecting the rights of our clients and securing their future in the United States. If you or someone you know is facing removal proceedings or seeking guidance on eligibility for a green card under the Cuban Adjustment Act, contact us today.
