Approximately, 629,000 Colorado residents were foreign-born as of 2024, highlighting the state’s substantial immigrant population and the importance of accessible immigration-related services. An immigration case may involve circumstances that legal documents alone cannot fully explain.
Immigration evaluations conducted by Immigration Psychology provide objective clinical findings concerning mental health conditions, trauma, cognitive limitations, and psychological hardship when these issues are relevant to immigration proceedings. Whether conducted in person or through our secure telehealth system, every assessment follows the same commitment to accuracy, professional standards, and impartiality.
Our Services
Asylum Evaluations
Experiences involving persecution, violence, or traumatic events may have lasting psychological effects. Our asylum evaluation examines these effects through clinical interviews, psychological testing, and relevant records. For Colorado asylum cases, our evaluations document identified psychological conditions and their relationship to reported experiences without determining whether the applicant qualifies for asylum.
Citizenship Examination Waiver
Certain medical conditions and cognitive impairments can prevent individuals from fulfilling naturalization testing requirements. Through our citizenship examination waiver assessments, we examine qualifying impairments and their effects on learning, memory, and communication. When clinically justified, our authorized psychologist may complete USCIS Form N-648 to document the medical basis for an examination exception.
Competency To Participate
An individual's ability to understand immigration proceedings and participate meaningfully may become an issue in cases before Colorado immigration courts. Our competency evaluations examine cognitive abilities, communication, and psychological functioning in accordance with relevant clinical considerations under Matter of M-A-M. Findings provide information for immigration judges when competency concerns arise.
Dangerousness Evaluations
When immigration proceedings involve questions about potential dangerousness, clinical assessments may provide relevant behavioral and psychological information. Our dangerousness evaluations examine available clinical history, psychological functioning, and relevant risk factors. Conclusions are based on documented evidence rather than assumptions about an individual's immigration status or circumstances.
Hardship Waivers
Family separation and relocation can introduce psychological concerns into certain immigration waiver cases. Our hardship evaluations assess the nature and severity of relevant psychological conditions affecting qualifying family members. Evaluations examine documented circumstances and anticipated psychological consequences while leaving determinations of legal hardship to immigration authorities.
Immigration Bond Hearing
Psychological evidence may be relevant to certain immigration bond proceedings, including eligible detention cases heard at the Aurora Immigration Court. For an immigration bond hearing, our psychologists examine clinically relevant factors, behavioral history, and psychological functioning. The resulting reports provide independent clinical information when requested for consideration in bond proceedings.
Same Sex Couples Hardship
Immigration-related separation or relocation may raise distinct psychological concerns for same-sex couples. Our same-sex couples hardship assessments consider individual mental health conditions, relationship circumstances, and the psychological implications of potential separation. Every evaluation applies consistent clinical standards without assumptions concerning sexual orientation or family structure.
T Visa
Human trafficking can have significant psychological consequences that warrant clinical examination. Our T-visa evaluations assess reported trafficking-related psychological symptoms, trauma, and functional impairments. Findings document clinical conditions when established through the assessment process without independently determining trafficking or immigration eligibility.
U Visa Psychological Evaluations
Qualifying criminal activity may result in psychological harm relevant to certain U-visa applications. Through our U-Visa evaluation services, we examine reported experiences, identified psychological conditions, and their effects on daily functioning. Assessments distinguish clinical findings from legal determinations concerning eligibility.
VAWA
Psychological conditions associated with reported domestic abuse may be relevant to immigration relief under the Violence Against Women Act. Our VAWA evaluations document identified psychological symptoms and their severity through independent clinical assessments. Findings reflect the available clinical evidence without presuming the outcome of an immigration application.
