(COLUMBUS, OH, 03/09/23) – On Tuesday, March 7, CAIR-Ohio partnered with Simakovsky Law to hold an Immigration Clinic at the CAIR-Ohio Columbus office. This clinic served 18 Muslims seeking legal advice to address their immigration cases. Clients had one-on-one consultations with an immigration attorney to review their case and answered questions regarding a variety of cases, including recent arrivals to the United States, asylum seekers, and victims of domestic violence.
Columbus, Ohio is home to more than 150,000 immigrants, and they are a huge part of our Muslim narrative. Many of those who experienced difficulties leading up to their migration, and while coming into the country, are still facing hardship and adversity while trying to build a new life for themselves and their families.
Whether it is family reunification, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), or Citizenship, with the combined help of CAIR-Ohio staff and Simakovsky Law attorneys, clients were able to have their questions answered and gain help in processing their immigration cases.
