Nassau County Immigration Attorney Rajat Shankar Explains How Trafficking Survivors Can Obtain a Law Enforcement Declaration Without a Police Report
Survivors of human trafficking in New York who never filed a police report can still pursue T visa protection through alternative documentation pathways under federal law.
Form I-914, Supplement B, is an optional law enforcement declaration for T visa applications and is not a mandatory filing requirement.
Many survivors are unaware that agencies beyond local police departments can sign Form I-914, Supplement B, according to Rajat Shankar.
Applicants who were minors during trafficking acts do not need a law enforcement declaration to meet eligibility requirements for the T visa.
