This two-day seminar will provide updated information on selected topics in family-based immigration, including: establishing qualifying relationships for family-based petitions; consular processing; adjustment of status; Child Status Protection Act; priority date retention and conversion; widow(er) petitions; and filing effective waiver applications. Speakers include CLINIC's Charles Wheeler and Susan Schreiber; Laura Dogu, Deputy Consul General in Cd. Juarez; and Rose Mary Atkinson, USCIS, Cd. Juarez. The training is designed for practitioners who have experience in family-based immigration law. This is not an introductory training and is not geared to new practitioners. Please review the agenda before registering. New practitioners registering for this training are encouraged to attend CLINIC's two-part webinar on Basics of Family-Based Immigration, which will soon be accessible through CLINIC's website and will be included in the registration fee.

The tour of the consulate will take place on Friday, November 20 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and will be limited to the first 75 registrants. The tour requires a separate registration and is open only to those who are registered for the training. No one will be allowed on the tour who has not registered by the cut-off date. No substitutions will be allowed on the day of the tour.
