What to know about filing from New Jersey

Practical filing procedures, jurisdiction rules, and local court details for New Jersey residents.

Immigration court proceedings for northern and central New Jersey are centered at the Newark Immigration Court (970 Broad Street and 1085 Raymond Blvd). Detained proceedings are scheduled under expedited calendars requiring prompt attorney intervention for custody redeterminations.

Affirmative filings, green card adjustment interviews, and N-400 citizenship examinations are handled at the Newark Field Office or the Mount Laurel Field Office for southern counties. Affirmative asylum applications are adjudicated by the Newark Asylum Office in Lyndhurst.

Federal appeals from New Jersey immigration judges are governed by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, which has issued influential precedents regarding categorical approach analysis for criminal convictions and standards for withholding of removal.
