To participate in this group lawsuit project, a I-485 Primary Applicant must meet the following four requirements:
(1) The applicant be inside the United States;
(2) The applicant must have an I-485 Application pending (with I-797 notice to prove it);
(3) The applicant must be a national of a country impacted by President Trump’s June 4, 2025 travel ban, called Restricting The Entry Of Foreign Nationals To Protect The United States From Foreign Terrorists And Other National Security And Public Safety Threats; and
(4) The applicant cannot be a plaintiff in any other active unreasonable delay/mandamus lawsuits challenging delays related to an I-485 adjudication.
Cost to Participate
The attorney fee to participate as plaintiffs in the lawsuit will be $3,000 for each I-485 Primary Applicant. This fee includes the cost of participation of all derivative beneficiaries regardless of family size.
The terms for payment are as follows: the initial attorney fee of $1,000 is due in advance of the representation, and the $2,000 balance is deferred until and due on February 1, 2026.
Note: the $2,000 backend payment is only deferred as a courtesy for the unpredicted hardship faced by victims of the December 2, 2025 USCIS Policy Memo, PM-602-0192. Participants who are not comfortable with this contingency are welcome to pre-pay the entire $3,000 attorney fees.
