What are the registration requirements for Immigration Assistance Providers in Georgia?
According to the Georgia Registration of Immigration Assistance Act, immigration assistance is “any service provided to clients for compensation related to immigration matters, such as completing government agency forms. It does not include legal advice, recommending a specific course of legal action, or providing any other assistance that requires legal analysis, legal judgment, or the interpretation of the law.” All immigration assistance providers must be registered to legally operate.
To register as an immigration assistance provider in Georgia, the following requirements must be met: 
- Must be at least 18 years of age
- Must be a legal resident of the United States
- Provide a criminal background report – no criminal convictions in the past 5 years
- Submit a completed application form
- Submit $5,000 Georgia Immigration Assistance Provider Bond
- Note: the cost to obtain the bond is only a small percentage of this bond amount!
More information on these registration requirements and processes can be found on the State of Georgia’s website.

What happens at renewal?
