What to Expect to Receive an Evaluation
For an Immigration Evaluation, you should expect to meet in virtually, but in some cases, in person with your clinician for at least 2-3 sessions to gather the necessary information needed to create your documentation and to be submitted to your immigration attorney. The assessment completed by your clinician will be a thorough assessment approximately 12-15 pages in length that could take around 3-4 weeks to be completed.
Immigration Evaluation Report Process & Fees
A. Moodie, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist for Alpha PsychCare, charges a flat fee of $1,200. Payments may be paid in full or a payment split into two payments one which would be a deposit of $600 and remaining balance of $600. Fees would cover payment for immigration evaluation reports. The fee covers 2-3 comprehensive interviews, and any necessary assessments, and a detailed report of 12-15 pages that is tailored to your specific case
It is important to note that you may require the presence of an interpreter for any evaluation as you deem necessary. Alpha PsychCare may provide referrals to interpreters or agencies. They can either be with you during the video evaluation, or we can send them a link so they can join from wherever they are. However, you are responsible for arranging an interpreter either personally or through your attorney.
Investing in a high-quality evaluation from a specifically trained clinician and reputable provider can significantly increase your chances of a successful immigration application. It’s important to note that there is a common misconception that immigration evaluations must come from a therapist who has conducted multiple sessions with the client and is bilingual. This is not accurate. In fact, a clinician that provides evaluations should not have a dual relationship with a client. A. Moodie was trained to assess and document the psychological factors relevant and ensuring that the evaluation is thorough and objective, and meets the necessary standards of both client and attorney.
