Practical resources
Clearer reading for consequential decisions.
Stratos Legal is an independent publication about U.S. immigration categories and practical preparation.
What we publish
Our guides are written for people trying to understand a visa category before deciding what to ask, which records to organize and where to find official instructions. We cover visits, study, work, fiancé(e) immigration and investor immigration in this first collection.
We favor specific questions over promises. A useful guide should help you distinguish what you know from what still needs checking.
Who stands behind the guides
The articles are attributed to the Stratos Legal editorial team. This is an editorial byline, not a claim of attorney authorship or legal review. Where a qualified contributor reviews future material, that person’s name and the scope of their review should be identified explicitly.
Stratos Legal does not offer representation, accept immigration applications or act as a government agency. No legacy business relationship or law-firm service is implied by this publication’s domain name.
How to use the publication
Start with the guide library, follow the official sources for the applicable instructions, and use the checklist to prepare questions. Seek a licensed immigration attorney or accredited representative for advice about your individual circumstances.
