LSS Immigration Legal Services
Legal Services on Immigration Issues
We offer Immigration Legal Services for a nominal fee to help refugees, asylees and other immigrants living in the Twin Cities and St. Cloud complete immigration documents – including Permanent Resident, Naturalization, Employment Authorization, and family visa applications.
Due to Covid-19, LSS Refugee Services provides free consultation and screening services by appointment only. To make an appointment, please contact Refugee.Services@lssmn.org.
Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota and our staff representatives are accredited by the Department of Justice to provide legal advice and legal services on immigration issues.
