What is Immigration Law?

Immigration law in Hawaii is the body of federal and state laws that govern a person’s ability to enter, live, and work in the United States. These laws determine who can migrate to the United States, when and how they can migrate, and other aspects of the immigration process. Generally, a person needs the correct paperwork and permission from the federal government to legally enter and remain in the United States. Immigration law also governs the removal of immigrants from the United States, either through deportation or other punitive measures. Immigration law also governs the rights of immigrants who are already in the United States. Immigrants covered by immigration law will often have the right to file for asylum, to apply for work visas, or to receive permanent residency. Immigration law also controls the rights of immigrants to access public services such as healthcare and education. In Hawaii, immigration law is administered by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) office. The USCIS handles all applications for entry into the US, as well as other processes related to immigration. The US Department of State also plays a role in setting immigration policy and providing visas to people attempting to enter the US. Ultimately, immigration law is designed to ensure the safety of the country and its citizens and to ensure that people who wish to migrate to the United States have the necessary paperwork and permission.
