"The new online service, announced Thursday, lets residents speak directly with immigration lawyers from home. It is being promoted as completely free and confidential and covers help with renewing or replacing documents, sponsoring family members, and questions about Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and Temporary Protected Status (TPS). Appointments can be made by phone at (646) 664‑9400, and in‑person scheduling is available at 211 East 43rd Street."
"CUNY's Citizenship Now program, the university's long‑running legal clinic, provides one‑on‑one consultations and application assistance and lists (646) 664‑9400 as its central appointment line, according to CUNY Citizenship Now. The program's online description says services include naturalization, adjustment of status, family‑based petitions, DACA, TPS, and help replacing or renewing immigration documents. All consultations are free and confidential and are protected under attorney‑client privilege, CUNY says."
"The announcement was posted on X and included the phone line and an in‑person scheduling option at a Midtown location; see the Council's post for the original message. The post from the New York City Council directs users to CUNY for virtual consultations and for sessions held at district offices. For broader background on city‑funded immigrant legal help, the Council lists CUNY Citizenship Now among programs it supports to expand access to legal services, according to the New York City Council."
