Where Immigrants Can Find Free Lawyers, Housing Assistance, and Guarantors

Tens of thousands of Russian-speaking immigrants ended up in the United States in 2022-2023. Someone crossed the border with Mexico and ended up in America. And someone managed to get a tourist visa and ask for asylum in the United States.

On According to The US Department of Justice, in fiscal year 2023, the proportion of Russians who received asylum in the country was 63%. For example, asylum seekers from Venezuela have only 38% of approved cases. And immigrants from Mexico have only 5%.

However, thousands of immigrants are still looking for a guarantor. And those who have started a new life cannot pay for lawyers and are trying to find other ways to get advice. A separate problem is the search for free housing in the United States.
