Important Notice for Clients of Former Immigration Attorney Alexandra Lozano. USCIS issued an urgent alert on June 26, 2026, following the resignation of Alexandra Lozano from the Washington State Bar and the Board of Immigration Appeals suspension of Lozano from practice before DHS, the Immigration Courts, and the Board. The closure of Lozano’s firm on June 10, 2026 has created widespread concern for clients with petitions or applications pending before USCIS. USCIS requests affected clients provide updated mailing addresses to continue processing their cases and warns that notices may be sent to the former firm. Special guidance is provided for VAWA self-petitioners and T/U visa applicants to update addresses through designated procedures. If you do not know which office processes your case, you should contact the USCIS Contact Center. You may also withdraw your application in writing if needed. This alert underscores the importance of verifying attorney credentials and maintaining direct communication with immigration agencies to prevent processing delays or denials.
What This Means for You: - Key Point 1: Clients of a now-defunct attorney must update mailing addresses directly with USCIS to prevent missing notices. - Who Should Be Concerned: Anyone represented by Alexandra Lozano or her firm for USCIS petitions or immigration court matters. - Timeline for Action: Update address immediately; timelines may affect RFEs and interviews. - Next Steps: Hire a reputable substitute attorney to take over; file a Freedom of Information Act request if needed for case records.
