Kendra Scheuerlein Trains BIA Accredited Representatives with ICIRR

We love to see immigration advocates grow in number. Recently, immigration attorney, Kendra Scheuerlein, trained attendees at the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights’ (ICIRR) Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) accredited representative program. Ms. Scheuerlein presented on immigrant visa processing, from Form I-130 approval through immigrant visa interviews at US Consulates abroad and waivers of inadmissibility.

The BIA accredited representative training allows people who work at non-profit community organizations to represent people before US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) if partially accredited, and the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) Immigration Court if fully accredited.

Kendra Scheuerlein is an associate with Hughes Socol Piers Resnick & Dym, Ltd. She concentrates her practice in the areas of immigration and nationality matters. These include family-based immigration issues, waivers, naturalization, asylum, consular processing, and appeals. Ms. Scheuerlein represents clients in removal proceedings before the Department of Homeland Security.

Ms. Scheuerlein is the vice president of the executive board for Centro Romero, a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the immigrant community in Chicago. She is also active in the Chicago Chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, serving as a member and co-chair of various committees since her graduation from DePaul University College of Law. Ms. Scheuerlein is dedicated to serving her community, regularly speaking at Know Your Rights and other community presentations. In her free time, she is an avid yoga practitioner and rescue dog lover.
