Immigration Legal Services
KRM’s immigration services are family-based and humanitarian (e.g., refugees and asylees). These services are open to community members of all immigration statuses, regardless of whether or not you were resettled by KRM or arrived as a refugee. Services are offered in Louisville, Lexington, and Northern Kentucky.
All services are fee-based:
- Consultations
- Employment Authorization Document (EAD)
- Travel documents
- Permanent residency (Green Card)
- Family reunification
- Marriage-based adjustment of status
-
- Citizenship/Naturalization
- Asylum Cases
- U, T, and VAWA cases
- I601A Waivers of Inadmissibility
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the high volume of clients the KRM Louisville legal services department is currently serving, there may be an extended waitlist for scheduling initial consultation appointments for those community members outside of KRM refugee and humanitarian parolee clientele, and availability is not guaranteed. New appointments for initial legal consultations with a KRM Louisville attorney can be requested by leaving a message at the phone number or email address provided below. Please include your name and phone number. You will be contacted by a KRM paralegal within 3-5 business days (Current caseload and volume of clients may extend this follow-up time).
