Immigration Psychological Evaluations
Coming to the United States is a dream for many immigrants. However, obtaining legal status to remain in the US can be a challenging process. There are certain circumstances in which foreigners and their family members can petition to remain in the US.
Foreigners who are victims of serious crimes, human trafficking, domestic violence, or fear persecution may be eligible for legal status and remain in the United States. In these immigration cases, psychological evaluations are a valuable piece of evidence.
Our team of licensed psychologists have extensive knowledge and training of cross cultural psychology, trauma, and neuropsychology which allows them to competently work with individuals from a variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds. They also have experience collaborating with attorneys and providing expert testimony in immigration cases.

Do I need an immigration psychological evaluation?
The best way to figure out if you need psychological evaluation for your immigration case is to ask your immigration attorney.
What should I bring to my evaluation?
Please bring the following information with you to the appointment:
Are you qualified to do immigration evaluations?
Yes. The psychologists on staff at Envision Wellness are qualified to complete psychological evaluations for immigration. They are licensed psychologists on the State of Florida and have completed specific training to conduct these types evaluations.
Can this evaluation be done in a language other than English or Spanish?
Yes. We can perform these evaluations in other languages with the assistance of a Certified Medical Interpreter or Certifed Court Interpreter fluent in the client’s native language. The client is responsible for the cost of the the interpreter’s time.
We recommend Verbatim Languages Translators & Interpreters. They provide certified medical translators and interpreters in a variety of languages in the greater Miami area. Costs range from $95 – $160 per hour (2-hour minimum) depending on the language.
Due to the legal nature of these evaluations, family members, friends, or other persons casually known to the client cannot serve as interpreters. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
My immigration hearing is in less than 2 weeks. How fast can you complete this evaluation?
We can usually complete most evaluations in 15 business days. This is enough time in most cases. However, we can accommodate you if you need the evaluation completed in a faster timeframe, subject to a rush fee.
Does my healthcare insurance cover this evaluation?
Maybe. However, our psychologists do not accept any form of health insurance. As out-of-network providers, they can give you a superbill (a receipt with medical procedure codes) that you submit to your healthcare insurance company. Your insurance carrier will determine if you are eligible for reimbursement of this evaluation’s cost based on your healthcare plan’s coverage.
How does payment work?
There’s a $300 USD non-refundable scheduling fee, which can be applied towards the cost of the evaluation. The remaining balance is expected on the day of your appointment. Please note that the scheduling fee is forfeited and is applied towards the late cancelation/no-show fee if you late cancel (i.e. less than 24 hours notice) or fail to attend your appointment within 15 minutes of the start time (i.e. no show).
We will provide you with a receipt for your records. No additional payment is required at the final session when you receive the evaluation’s results.
At this time we do not accept personal checks or money orders for this type of evaluation. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Do you conduct immigration evaluations for minors (age 17 & under)?
Not this time. Our immigration evaluations are only provided to adults (age 18 and older).
