Increased enforcement around immigration has left many uncertain about whether to move forward with applying for benefits. On Inside South Florida, immigration attorney Saman Movassaghi Gonzalez explains that while every situation is different, those who are eligible for benefits like citizenship, permanent residency, or visas should still consider applying. The laws that provide these benefits remain unchanged, and timing may be critical depending on individual circumstances.
For individuals with a criminal record, Movassaghi emphasizes the importance of a thorough case assessment by an experienced immigration attorney. A criminal history doesn’t automatically disqualify someone from obtaining benefits, but the specifics of the case, including the type of charge and outcome, play a significant role in determining eligibility.
