Immigration psychological evaluations document mental health conditions, trauma, cognitive limitations, and other factors relevant to immigration proceedings. Conducted by licensed psychologists, these assessments provide objective, evidence-based information that guides decision-makers to understand how psychological conditions relate to specific immigration issues.
Immigration Psychology is a team of licensed clinical psychologists providing objective evaluations nationwide. As independent examiners, we offer unbiased clinical opinions rather than advocacy. Our comprehensive immigration evaluations document psychological findings that may be relevant to the US immigration court system.
Immigration Psychological Evaluations
Asylum Evaluations
Asylum evaluations assess psychological symptoms and emotional injuries associated with persecution, violence, torture, threats, or other traumatic experiences. These evaluations may document conditions such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, and trauma-related symptoms that are consistent with an individual's reported experiences.
Citizenship Examination Waiver
Citizenship examination waiver evaluations assess whether a medical, developmental, or psychological condition affects an applicant’s ability to meet naturalization testing requirements. The evaluation may document cognitive impairments, intellectual disabilities, dementia-related conditions, or other qualifying psychological factors relevant to waiver requests.
Competency To Participate
Competency evaluations examine whether an individual possesses the capacity to understand immigration proceedings and meaningfully participate in the process. These assessments may address communication abilities, comprehension, decision-making capacity, and the impact of psychiatric or cognitive conditions on participation.
Dangerousness Evaluations
Dangerousness evaluations assess factors associated with potential risk to self or others. Through clinical interviews, psychological testing, and review of available records, psychologists evaluate relevant mental health conditions and behavioral history while providing objective findings based on available evidence.
Hardship Waivers
Hardship waiver evaluations focus on the psychological and emotional consequences that qualifying family members may experience if separation, relocation, or other immigration-related circumstances occur. These assessments document mental health conditions, family dynamics, caregiving responsibilities, and other factors that may contribute to hardship claims.
Immigration Bond Hearing
Immigration bond hearing evaluations may provide information regarding psychological functioning, treatment history, community stability, and other mental health considerations relevant to bond proceedings. The evaluation presents objective clinical findings rather than advocacy opinions.
Same Sex Couples Hardship
Same-sex couples hardship evaluations assess the emotional and psychological impact that separation, relocation, discrimination, or other immigration-related circumstances may have on the relationship and family unit. These evaluations document clinically significant psychological effects supported by professional assessment.
T Visa
T-Visa evaluations assess the psychological impact of human trafficking and related victimization. Individuals who have experienced trafficking often suffer from trauma-related disorders, depression, anxiety, and other psychological consequences.
U Visa Psychological Evaluations
U-Visa evaluations focus on the psychological effects of qualifying criminal victimization. Licensed psychologists assess emotional, cognitive, and behavioral consequences associated with criminal acts and document resulting psychological harm through objective clinical methods.
VAWA
