Overview
The ABA Commission on Immigration recently hosted a webinar where we discussed potential bars to relief for Afghans (including TRIG, the Persecutor Bar, and more) and best practices for dealing with these obstacles. We were joined by guest speakers Reena Arya, Lance Conklin, and Elizabeth Carlson.
This webinar comes paired with our recently published practice advisory titled: Common Obstacles when Representing Afghans in Immigration Proceedings. You can access that advisory here: https://www.americanbar.org/content/dam/aba/administrative/immigration/practice-advisory-asylum-bars.pdf
