When an individual is eligible for cancellation of removal, the immigration attorney may recommend an evaluation by an immigration psychologist.  An immigration psychologist is a doctor in psychology licensed in the State where you are located at the time of the interview.  The immigration psychologist specializes in assessments done for immigration cases such as the cancellation of removal.  A psychological evaluation for cancellation of removal focuses on the exceptional and extremely unusual hardships that removal may cause to the foreigner and their family.

How do you win a cancellation of removal case?
