IRAP shares a toolkit for legal practitioners who are preparing clients in refugee status for refugee revetting or adjustment of status interviews, or who are representing clients who receive a Notice of Intent to Terminate (NOIT) their refugee status. The toolkit contains: 1) brief legal background; 2) practice tips and recommendations for each stage of the process; 3) a step-by-step checklist; 4) sample scripts for interview preparation; 5) resources for challenging NOITs; and 6) additional legal resources on refugee claims and refugee processing.
For impacted communities, we recommend consulting and sharing IRAP’s legal information resources on refugee detention and revetting that are available in English, Amharic, Arabic, Dari/Farsi, French, Haitian Kreyol, Pashto, Portuguese, Russian, Somali, Spanish, Swahili, Tigrinya, and Ukrainian, and contain information on requesting legal assistance.
You can view and download the Toolkit here or below.
