For residents of the Hudson Valley
area needing the U.S. Citizenship and immigration services meant having to
travel all the way to New York City or Albany. This will no longer have to be
the case. The Newburgh Armory Unity Center is pleased to announce the opening
of a brand new USCIS Office in our area, which is the only one between New York
City and Albany. This new USCIS Office will provide its services to the local
immigrant community of the Mid-Hudson region.
Because the only two closest USCIS
Offices were located in New York City and Albany, in the past people in need of
USCIS would spend a lot of time and money to travel to either one of this two
offices. Obtaining the services provided by USCIS is costly and the new office
in Newburgh would reduce the cost of loss wages and traveling expenses. The
local immigrant community will no longer have to make to spend hundreds of
dollars on repeated trips to New York City. The new USCIS office will be
accessible to New York residents of Dutchess, Ulster, and Orange, Sullivan,
Putnam and Rockland counties.
USCIS agents will provide customer service assistance with:
·
Forms (Petitions/Applications)
·
Case Status Inquiries
·
Reschedule Requests
·
Green Card Production Inquiries
·
ELIS Issues
·
Adit Stamps
·
Emergency Advance Paroles
·
General Immigration Information
