Terms of use
The plain rules for using this website and the information on it.
Last updated October 1, 2026
In short: this site explains immigration matters in general terms. It is not legal advice about your case, and using it does not make you our client.
These terms apply to your use of this website, which is run by Siouxland Immigration Services Inc., a nonprofit immigration law office in Sioux City, Iowa. By using the site, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
General information, not legal advice
The articles, guides and answers on this site explain immigration matters in general terms. They are not legal advice about your situation. Immigration law is complex and every case is different, so please talk with one of our attorneys or accredited representatives, or another qualified professional, before you act on anything you read here.
Using the site does not make you our client
Reading this site, emailing us, texting us or booking an appointment does not by itself create an attorney client relationship. That relationship begins only when we agree in writing to represent you. We keep what you tell us confidential either way, but please do not send original documents, and do not rely on us to meet a deadline, until we have confirmed that we can help.
Accuracy
Immigration rules, forms and fees change often. We work to keep this site current, but we cannot promise that every page is complete or up to date on the day you read it. Always confirm deadlines, fees and forms with us or on uscis.gov before you file anything.
Links to other websites
We link to government agencies and community organizations we trust. We do not control those sites, and we are not responsible for their content, their accuracy or how they handle your information.
Donations
Gifts to Siouxland Immigration Services Inc. are voluntary and support our nonprofit work. A gift does not buy legal services and never affects how any case is handled. Contact us for information about donation receipts and tax documentation. Card payments are processed by our giving partner, and card details are never stored on this site. If you made a gift in error, email bonyalabee@msn.com within 30 days and we will work with you to put it right.

The words, photographs, logo and design of this site belong to Siouxland Immigration Services Inc. or to the people who licensed them to us. You are welcome to print and share our articles and guides for personal or community use, free of charge, with credit to Siouxland Immigration Services Inc.. Please do not copy the site for commercial use, or in a way that suggests you are part of our organization.
Using the site fairly
Please do not misuse the site, for example by trying to break its security, overload it or use it to send spam. We may limit access for anyone who does.
Iowa law
