What is a Special Immigrant Juvenile Visa (SIJ)?

An unfortunate truth is that sometimes a juvenile needs to petition for lawful permanent residency without a parent due to abuse, neglect, or abandonment. A court may grant a Special Immigrant Juvenile (SIJ) classification in these cases.

Who can Qualify for SIJ Visa?

To qualify for SIJ Classification, you must meet the following requirements:

  • Be under 21 years of age
  • Currently reside in the United States
  • Have a valid juvenile court order that finds
    • You cannot be reunified with one or both of your parents due to abuse, abandonment, neglect, or a similar basis and;
    • Returning to the country of nationality or last habitual residence of you/your parents is not in your best interest
  • Be eligible for USCIS consent
  • Have written consent from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)/ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) to the court’s jurisdiction if
    • You are currently in the custody of HHS and;
    • The juvenile court order also changes your custody status or placement.
