BIA Accreditation
The need for professionally trained advocates continues to be critical due to complex changes in immigration law enacted in 1996, government restructuring, and the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. Since 1991, the ILRC’s National Paralegal Training Program (NPTP) has supported nonprofit organizations and paralegals in obtaining Board of Immigration (BIA) agency recognition and legal worker accreditation to represent clients.
For information on how to obtain BIA Accreditation, including the type of experience and training that is required, visit the United States Department of Justice’s website. Select “Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)” from the list of available links.
