Appeal Sustained Reversing the Denial of an Application for Permission to Reapply

My client was expeditiously removed at Boston's Logan International Airport for lack of proper documents based on suspicion of previous unauthorized employment. An I-212 was filed in October 2015, and was denied on October 10, 2017. I was retained to appeal the decision. I argued that ARO failed to set forth any basis for the denial of the I-212. The ARO elected to treat my appeal as Motion to Reopen, and rescinded I-212 denial, granting my client permission to reapply based on the strength of my evidentiary submission. My client is now again eligible to apply for admission to the United States.

“It’s unspeakable,” immigration lawyer Matthew Kolken told Fox News. “In this day and age, we don’t allow our children to walk to school alone… The actors that are smuggling individuals are unscrupulous. They take advantage of them. Women are subjected to sexual assault and rape. Children too.”

Kolken says criminals sometimes embed themselves in migrant caravans and target unsuspecting individuals.

“(Criminals) have infrastructure that is built up already and are put into place inside the caravans,” he said.
