Family-based, employment-based (Cheyenne Regional, Wyoming Medical, oil & gas, ranching, University of Wyoming, Yellowstone-area hospitality), humanitarian (asylum, U/T/VAWA), and the diversity visa lottery.
After 5 years as an LPR (3 if married to a USC), file N-400, attend biometrics, and interview at the Denver or Salt Lake City Field Office. English/civics testing applies. WY clients often travel for biometrics and interviews.
Don’t miss a hearing. An attorney enters an appearance and identifies relief.
File I-589 within one year of your last U.S. entry. Missing the deadline bars asylum absent changed/extraordinary circumstances.
Yes. Categorical-approach analysis controls. Drug, DUI, DV, and theft pleas can trigger removal. Consult before any plea.
Yes. Anyone in proceedings, with an unpaid waiver, or with TPS/DACA should not casually cross to Canada. Re-entry can be denied or trigger inadmissibility findings.

Why Do You Need a Immigration Attorney in Wyoming?

Wyoming is home to roughly 20,000 foreign-born residents (about 3.5% of the state — the smallest absolute number in the country), with significant Mexican, Canadian (border ties), Filipino, Chinese, and Indian populations tied to oil & gas, ranching, healthcare (Cheyenne Regional, Wyoming Medical), tourism (Jackson, Yellowstone-area), and Wyoming. Removal cases route to the Salt Lake City Immigration Court (most of the state) or the Denver Immigration Court (southeast). USCIS Denver and Salt Lake City Field Offices handle Wyoming adjudications; WY has limited in-state application support. Wyoming requires lawful presence for driver’s licenses (W.S. § 31-7-118). Wyoming does not have a general in-state tuition statute for undocumented students. Wyoming convictions can trigger removal under the categorical approach. The Canadian border adds re-entry considerations. An attorney is essential.

Types of Immigration Cases in Wyoming

From the moment you connect with a Wyoming immigration attorney, they go to work protecting your claim. The most common case types we handle:

Missing the one-year asylum filing deadline from your last U.S. entry
Pleading to a WY state offense without an immigration consult — categorical-approach traps in drug, DUI, DV, and theft pleas
Filing for adjustment without checking inadmissibility (unlawful presence, fraud, prior removals)
Missing a biometrics appointment in Denver or Salt Lake City and triggering denial for abandonment
Traveling on advance parole — or to Canada — with an unwaived 3- or 10-year bar
Not filing Form AR-11 within 10 days of moving — leading to missed notices and in absentia orders
