What is the special immigrant juvenile?

Does SIJ Status Protect Against Deportation? Once a child is approved for SIJ status and receives a Green Card, they will be a lawful permanent resident of the United States, and they will be able to continue living in the country indefinitely as long as they do not commit any deportable offenses.

How do I petition for special immigrant juvenile status?

To apply for SIJS, you will submit Form I-360, Petition for Amerasian, Widow(er), or Special Immigrant (sometimes called a I-360 petition). You will send the form to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (or USCIS). If you have an immigration attorney, the attorney will help you.
