Unreliable Third-Party Immigration Services
The Problem
Many immigrants report poor experiences with online immigration preparation services that use non-lawyer contract workers. Users often find these services provide inaccurate guidance, lack legal expertise, and fail to offer personalized support for complex cases.
Solution
Avoid non-lawyer document preparation services. Instead, use free official USCIS resources, consult with licensed immigration attorneys, or utilize reputable AI tools for basic information while verifying all steps against official government instructions.
Boundless uses contract workers for 99% of the application preparation. They are not lawyers and have no legal experience.
