Discover how the T Visa provides legal protection, work authorization, and a path to permanent residency for victims of human trafficking. Learn the requirements and how LG Law Group can help you succeed.
Human trafficking is one of the most serious violations of fundamental human rights, affecting thousands of people every year. In the United States, the T Visa offers a path to safety and a new beginning.
Created under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (TVPA), the T Visa is more than just a legal document—it is a bridge to protection, independence, and a dignified future.
Who Qualifies for the T Visa?
To be eligible, you must demonstrate that you are a victim of severe human trafficking, including sex trafficking or forced labor involving force, fraud, or coercion.
Additionally, you must meet the following criteria:
- Cooperation with law enforcement (certification is important but not required for minors)
- Evidence of severe physical or emotional harm
- No serious criminal disqualifications
You may also include certain family members, such as your spouse and unmarried children under 21.
After 3 years, you may become eligible to apply for a Green Card. From the beginning, you can also receive work authorization to rebuild your life.
Why Many Cases Get Denied
Although up to 5,000 T Visas are available each year, many go unused due to poor case preparation.
Common issues include:
- Incomplete documentation
- Lack of strong evidence
- Errors in the Form I-914 petition
