Which USCIS office serves Mineola and Nassau County?

This field office handles adjustment of status (green card) interviews, naturalization interviews, and biometrics appointments for all Long Island residents. It is located approximately 2 miles from Mineola. Removal proceedings for Nassau County residents are heard at the New York Immigration Court at 26 Federal Plaza in Manhattan.
I live in Mineola and received a Request for Evidence (RFE) from USCIS. What should I do?
A Request for Evidence (RFE) is a formal request from USCIS for additional documentation or information needed to adjudicate your application. You have a specific deadline to respond — typically up to 87 days (about 12 weeks), as stated in the RFE. Responding to an RFE requires carefully analyzing what USCIS is asking, gathering the requested evidence, and drafting a thorough legal brief explaining why your application should be approved. Inadequate RFE responses are a common cause of denials. We represent Nassau County clients in responding to RFEs for all types of immigration applications — green cards, naturalization, work visas, and petitions.
I have a Nassau County employer who wants to sponsor me for a green card. What is the process?
Employment-based green card sponsorship requires several steps. First, for most categories, the employer files a PERM labor certification with the Department of Labor to demonstrate no qualified U.S. workers are available; the Department of Labor publishes its current PERM processing queue, and we go through a realistic range for your case at the consultation rather than quoting an average. Then the employer files an I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS. Once the I-140 is approved and a visa number is available (immediately for most non-Indian/Chinese nationals in EB-2/EB-3), you file for adjustment of status. If you are already in the U.S. lawfully (on H-1B or another status), this can be done without leaving. If you are undocumented, consular processing and possibly an I-601A waiver may be required.
