- IFSS has partnered with Immigrant Justice Center (IJC) at the UW Law School to create the Immigration Legal Support Office (ILSO) to support our employees and their immigration needs. ILSO can help employees and their families prepare the I-485s (final step in the permanent residency process), I-539s (change of status petitions), I-765 (work authorization) just to name a few items. They are welcome to reach out to ILSO for free legal services. We will provide ILSO’s contact information when employees are ready to complete the final step in the university-sponsored permanent residency process.
