Moving an Immigration Case to the Proper Court Location

A change of venue request asks the immigration court to move a case from one court location to another. This may be necessary when a person moves, lives far from the assigned court, has family or counsel in another state, or needs the case heard in a more appropriate location.

At Kanu & Associates, P.C., we help clients prepare change of venue requests and ensure that address updates and court filings are handled properly.

Why Venue Matters

Immigration court hearings are serious. If a person misses court because the case is in the wrong location or because notices are not properly received, the consequences can be severe.

Changing venue requires more than moving addresses. The request must be filed with the court, and the client must continue to follow all existing hearing dates unless the court grants the request.

How We Can Help

  • Reviewing current court location
  • Preparing change of venue motions
  • Updating address information
  • Submitting supporting evidence
  • Tracking hearing notices
  • Coordinating the case after transfer
  • Advising clients about attendance obligations
