Frequently Asked Questions

No. Asal Immigration Services is a non-attorney immigration support service operated by Asal Multi-Services LLC. We are not attorneys and are not authorized to practice law. We do not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or legal strategy. We help with USCIS forms and application packets based on the information you provide. For legal questions or complex cases, consult a licensed immigration attorney.

We help prepare USCIS forms using the information you provide, organize supporting documents into an application packet, coordinate certified translations when needed, verify current government filing information from official sources, and help you organize case notices after submission. We explain our document-preparation process clearly and welcome individuals and families from all backgrounds.

We do not provide legal advice, legal strategy, or representation before USCIS or immigration court. We do not advise on eligibility, waivers, appeals, deportation defense, or complex legal issues. For those situations, you need a licensed immigration attorney.

Individuals and families from all backgrounds are welcome. Language support is available in English, Somali and Arabic. Tell us your preferred language so we can confirm support for your visit.

We provide document-preparation support for: I-130, I-129F, I-864, DS-260, N-400, N-600, I-485, I-864, I-765, I-131, I-90, I-751, I-765, I-589, I-821, I-765, I-131, I-918.

Yes. We can help you organize the documents USCIS requested and assemble a response packet using the notice and information you provide. We do not provide legal advice about strategy or eligibility — for that, consult an attorney.

Consultations are completely free. We review the documents you bring, explain our document-preparation services, and give you a flat-rate service price before work begins. We do not make legal eligibility decisions or tell you which immigration benefit to pursue.

We explain the clerical preparation work and flat fee before starting. N-400 $300; I-130 $350; I-90 $200; N-600 $300; I-485 combo $1,000; I-864 $200; I-765 $200; I-589 $1,000; I-751 $600. These are Asal paperwork preparation fees. Government fees are separate. Other services are quoted individually. The I-485 combo scope is confirmed before work begins.

Yes. We offer a money-back guarantee on our service work. Ask us for full details during your consultation.

Most application packets are ready within 24-48 hours after we receive all required documents from you. Cases requiring certified translations or more complex document organization may take longer. We give you a preparation timeline during your consultation.

USCIS processing times vary by form type, filing category, office or service center, and workload. They are outside our control. Check current processing times on USCIS.gov and use your receipt notice for case-specific tracking.

If USCIS accepts the filing, it generally issues a receipt notice with a case number. The timing varies. Depending on the form and case, USCIS may later schedule biometrics, request additional evidence (RFE), schedule an interview, or issue another notice. Follow the instructions and dates on each USCIS notice.
