About This Role

Assist-World is seeking an experienced Immigration Forms Specialist to join their remote team and provide critical backend support to a busy immigration law office. This is not an entry-level position — you must bring 3–4+ years of hands-on experience completing U.S. immigration forms and working with supporting documentation. You will handle time-consuming administrative work, allowing the in-office team to focus on client relationships and legal strategy.

Starting at 10 hours per week with a flexible, task-based schedule, this role offers growth potential as your performance demonstrates capability. You'll work independently with minimal supervision, meeting tight deadlines while maintaining the highest accuracy standards.

Core Responsibilities

Immigration Forms Completion (Primary Focus)

Complete U.S. immigration forms accurately and independently, including:
- N-400 (Application for Naturalization/Citizenship)
- I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative)
- I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status)
- I-601A (Application for Provisional Waiver of Grounds of Inadmissibility)
Review client intake information and accurately input data into case management systems
Verify all information is correct, complete, and consistent across all forms
Identify discrepancies and flag issues before submission

Document Management & Organization

Review, scan, and organize client documentation (passports, birth certificates, tax returns, employment letters, medical records, etc.)
Identify missing required documents and create follow-up lists
Extract critical information (passport numbers, visa numbers, I-94 numbers, travel history dates, prior addresses)
Maintain organized file structures using Google Drive and Docs
Ensure USCIS document requirements are met before submission

Client Communication (Light Touch)

Send written follow-up emails requesting missing documents
Clarify unclear or incomplete information from intake forms
Maintain professional, clear communication with clients
Utilize Spanish communication skills or translation tools as needed

Translation & Bilingual Support

Translate immigration forms and supporting documents into Spanish
Assist with bilingual client communication where necessary
Ensure translations are accurate and terminology-appropriate

Software & Systems Proficiency

Work efficiently within Google Drive and Google Docs
Learn and operate immigration-specific software platforms (experience with any of these is a plus: e-Immigration, Serenade, Docketwise, Filevine, Imaginiti)
Manage case files and track document status

Required Qualifications

3–4+ years of hands-on U.S. immigration work experience — this is non-negotiable
Proven track record completing immigration forms (not just reviewing or proofreading)
Deep, practical understanding of USCIS processes and requirements
Strong knowledge of U.S. immigration documentation standards
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision or daily check-ins
Exceptional attention to detail — errors in immigration forms can have serious client consequences
Reliable ability to meet firm deadlines (typically 1–2 days for form completion)
Comfortable with remote work and self-directed task management

Preferred Qualifications

Fluent or conversational Spanish
Prior experience with immigration software platforms
Established remote work history
Familiarity with USCIS filing procedures and fee structures

Schedule & Work Arrangements

Starting Hours: 10 hours per week
Schedule Type: Flexible, task-based (not rigid time slots)
Deadline-Driven: Must complete assigned forms and documents within 1–2 days
Location: 100% remote
Growth Path: Hours will increase based on performance and workload needs
Long-Term Potential: Ongoing remote work opportunity

Why This Role

If you're an experienced immigration professional looking for flexible, part-time remote work that leverages your expertise, this is an ideal opportunity. You'll work for a real immigration law office (not a staffing agency), handle meaningful legal work, and have clear growth potential. The role values independence and accuracy — perfect for someone who takes pride in their immigration knowledge.
