Cómo verificar y contactar a una organización reconocida por BIA

  1. Confirme el estado actual en el registro EOIR — el reconocimiento puede ser retirado, y el registro se actualiza trimestralmente.
  2. Llame antes para verificar disponibilidad de servicios — muchas organizaciones tienen listas de espera, especialmente para casos de asilo y defensa contra deportación.
  3. Pregunte sobre tarifas antes de firmar un acuerdo de representación. Gratis o tarifa según ingresos es estándar.
  4. Lleve todos los avisos USCIS + identificación con foto a su cita inicial.
  5. Cuidado con los “notarios” — solo las organizaciones reconocidas por BIA O los abogados licenciados pueden dar asesoría legal. Un “notario público” en EE. UU. NO es notario en el sentido latinoamericano y no puede representarlo legalmente.

Información procedimental relacionada


Última verificación: 2026-09-01. Fuente: Registro de Reconocimiento y Acreditación de EOIR del Departamento de Justicia. Información procedimental general — no es asesoría legal. Siempre verifique el estado de la organización y pregunte sobre tarifas antes de firmar un acuerdo de representación.

Contexto del programa de reconocimiento BIA (2025-2026)

El Programa de Reconocimiento y Acreditación de la Junta de Apelaciones de Inmigración (BIA) se rige por 8 CFR 1292.11-1292.16. El reconocimiento es válido por seis años, salvo que una organización reconocida por primera vez recibe un reconocimiento condicional válido por dos años (8 CFR 1292.11(f)); el plazo de tres años corresponde a la acreditación de cada representante, no al reconocimiento de la organización (8 CFR 1292.12(d)). Las renovaciones requieren una nueva solicitud y documentación actualizada. Según el registro de EOIR del 2026-04-20: 1,452 organizaciones reconocidas operan 1,564 oficinas a nivel nacional, con representantes que tienen Acreditación Total (representación en corte) o Acreditación Parcial (práctica solo ante USCIS).

Para ser reconocida, una organización debe ser sin fines de lucro y brindar servicios legales de inmigración principalmente a personas de bajos ingresos e indigentes, y si cobra tarifas debe tener una política escrita para atender a clientes que no pueden pagar; EOIR revisa su tabla de tarifas, su política de exención de tarifas y su presupuesto anual como parte del reconocimiento (8 CFR 1292.11(a)(1) y (b)). Cada organización fija sus propias tarifas, y ni EOIR ni ninguna otra fuente nacional publica cuánto cobran realmente las organizaciones reconocidas — ni los abogados de inmigración privados. Pida la tabla de tarifas por escrito y compare presupuestos antes de comprometerse.

EOIR publica el Registro de Reconocimiento y Acreditación trimestralmente en justice.gov/eoir/recognition-accreditation-roster-reports. Verifique el estado ACTUAL de una organización (Activa vs Renovación Pendiente vs Provisional vs Retirada) antes de firmar un acuerdo de representación. Las organizaciones cuyo reconocimiento fue retirado por EOIR (típicamente por fraude o problemas de cumplimiento) no pueden ejercer el derecho migratorio.

Para directorios de abogados: AILA Find-A-Lawyer en ailalawyer.com (membresía pagada, verificada), donatarios de la Legal Services Corporation en lsc.gov (ayuda legal con límite de ingresos), referencia de abogados del American Bar Association en americanbar.org/groups/legal_services. Evite el fraude de “notarios”: en EE. UU., un “notary public” (notario público) NO es un notario en el sentido latinoamericano y no puede dar asesoría legal. Reporte el fraude de notarios a la fiscalía general de su estado Y a USCIS en uscis.gov/avoid-scams.
