After graduating from university, I worked as a lawyer and passed the bar exam in 2005. Since 2017, I have been a member of the Qualification Chamber of the CBA (Bar Qualification and Disciplinary Commission) of the Chernivtsi region, where I serve as secretary during bar exam sessions. Currently, I am studying English at an American college. I am registered in the “Electronic Court” system and can handle cases through it, as well as provide legal consultations to Ukrainians living in the U.S. who have legal matters to resolve in Ukraine.
Ukrainians in the United States can receive legal assistance on immigration, refugee status, labor rights, and legalization.
Main areas of legal support:
- Obtaining refugee status - assistance in submitting documents and passing interviews.
- Immigration consultations - obtaining a visa, work permit, green card.
- Legalization of stay - support for the adaptation process and document processing.
- Labor rights - protection against illegal dismissal, consultations on contracts.
Obtaining refugee status in the United States includes several key stages:
1. Filing an application
Completing Form I-589 for asylum.- The application is submitted to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) within one year of arrival in the country.
2. Biometric verification
Submitting fingerprints and background checks by the security service.
3. Interview with an immigration officer
Receive notification of the interview date.- Complete the interview, where you must explain the reasons for seeking asylum and provide evidence of persecution.

USCIS makes a decision on granting refugee status.- In case of refusal, you can file an appeal or go to the Immigration Court.
5. Obtaining refugee status
After approval, you can apply for a work permit and apply for family reunification.- Refugees can receive financial assistance and access to social programs.
Obtaining a visa, work permit, and green card in the United States requires careful preparation and compliance with all immigration requirements. Here are the main aspects of the process:
1. Visas for entry to the United States
