Immigration courts have had to adjust their protocols due to the COVID-19 pandemic in order to reopen safely. Individuals in the following categories are now allowed into the immigration courts within 14 days:
- A positive test for COVID-19;
- A diagnosis of COVID-19 by a medical provider;
- The presence of one or more established symptoms of COVID-19;
- A request to self-quarantine by local health authorities or a medical provider related to COVID-19; or,
- Close contact with someone who has an active positive diagnosis of COVID-19 or who is exhibiting one or more symptoms of COVID-19.
If you fall into one of these categories, contact Aparisi Law to discuss your options. We may be able to ask the court to postpone your hearing date to ensure that you and others in the court remain safe during the pandemic.
