What is U-VISA psychological evaluation?

A U-VISA psychological evaluation is a specialized assessment designed to help individuals who have been victims of certain crimes in the United States. This evaluation aims to document the psychological impact of the crime and its effects on the individual’s mental health. It is a crucial step in applying for a U-VISA, as it provides supporting evidence of the emotional and psychological trauma experienced, which can significantly affect the outcome of your immigration case.

What do I need for requesting a U-VISA psychological evaluation?

To request a U-Visa psychological evaluation, please prepare the following:

1. Referral from Your Attorney: A recommendation from your immigration attorney ensures the evaluation aligns with your legal strategy and supports your U-Visa application effectively.

2. Personal Identification: Provide valid identification documents, such as a passport or government-issued ID, to verify your identity during the evaluation process.

3. Detailed Account of the Crime: Be ready to discuss the incident(s) in which you were a victim of qualifying criminal activity, including dates, locations, and any actions taken.

4. Medical and Psychological Records: If available, bring any existing medical or mental health records that document injuries or psychological effects resulting from the crime.

5. Legal Documentation: Include any police reports, court documents, or legal filings related to the criminal activity and your cooperation with law enforcement.

6. Interpreter Services: If English is not your primary language, arrange for an interpreter to ensure clear communication during the evaluation.

Good Faith Estimates

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. 


Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
