About this Gig
Is your immigration court case stuck in limbo or waiting on a "Status Docket"?
When your removal proceedings are continued to await action from USCIS or another agency, you must keep the Immigration Judge (IJ) informed. A "Motion for Status" or a formal "Status Update" ensures your case remains active and moves toward a resolution rather than facing unnecessary delays or administrative closure.
I specialize in drafting professional EOIR motions including:
- Status Docket Updates: Providing the court with required periodic updates on pending I-360, I-130, or I-485 applications.
- Motion for Status Conference: Requesting a brief hearing to discuss the current posture of the case with the Judge and DHS Counsel.
- Motion to Recalendar: Formal drafting to bring a case back to the active docket once a pending benefit (like an approved visa) is ready.
- Status-Based Continuance: Persuasive drafting to request additional time when an outside adjudication is still pending.
Why choose my drafting services?
- Court-Ready Formatting: All motions follow the EOIR Practice Manual standards for captions, structure, and certificates of service.

FAQ
What is a "Status Docket" in Immigration Court?
A status docket is a management tool used by judges for cases that are waiting on an action from USCIS (like a pending visa petition). The court usually requires you to file periodic motions or updates to show that the case is still progressing.
Does this motion require a filing fee?
Most motions for status updates or status conferences do not require a filing fee with the EOIR. However, you must still follow strict filing rules regarding the "Certificate of Service" to notify the DHS Office of the Principal Legal Advisor (OPLA).
What is the difference between a status update and a motion to recalendar?
A status update tells the judge your case is still waiting. A motion to recalendar is used when the waiting is over (e.g., your visa is approved) and you want the judge to put your case back on the active calendar for a final decision.
Do I need to provide proof of my pending USCIS application?
Yes. To draft an effective motion, I will need a copy of your most recent USCIS Receipt Notice (I-797) or an online status printout. This serves as the evidence the judge needs to see that your case is moving forward.
