The Utilization of Artificial Intelligence Reshapes Immigration Laws and Judicial Systems
The immigration process in the United States has long been fraught with complexities, particularly when it comes to job misclassifications and varying interpretations of Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) codes. However, a new AI tool, the Profile Evaluator, is set to change the game. First used by an immigration authority in 2023, the Profile Evaluator was developed by Mayukh Maitra and Surabhi Sinha. This innovative tool has been making waves in the industry, particularly at Ascend HSI Advisory Partners, where it has streamlined the petition process for both attorneys and clients. The Profile Evaluator has led to a significant drop in RFEs (Requests for Evidence) in the cases that have been properly classified using the tool. It has made the immigration process more predictable for clients at Ascend HSI Advisory Partners, removing much of the guesswork and human error that often leads to delays or denials. One of the key advantages of the Profile Evaluator is its ability to standardize job classifications, reducing subjectivity and inconsistency in the adjudication process. It leverages AI to automate and standardize the classification of job titles, ensuring they align with USCIS adjudication standards. The Profile Evaluator is not just about improving efficiency; it's about creating a fairer system for everyone involved in the immigration process. For immigrants navigating the complexities of immigration law, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds, the tool provides greater clarity and support. Ascend HSI Advisory Partners, a leading immigration firm, has processed thousands of cases using the Profile Evaluator. The firm has reported an 80% reduction in evaluation processing times, thanks to the tool. This has made the immigration process smoother and more transparent for both clients and legal teams at the firm. The Profile Evaluator has also allowed legal professionals to spend less time evaluating petitions and assigning SOC codes. Instead, they can focus on providing the best possible service to their clients. The success of the Profile Evaluator goes beyond improving efficiency in the immigration process. It's a testament to the potential of artificial intelligence in improving fairness and efficiency in complex areas like immigration law. The Profile Evaluator tool, developed by TogetherThrive Foundation, is transforming the way immigration law firms handle complex cases. In use at Ascend HSI Advisory Partners for over a year, the Profile Evaluator continues to make a positive impact. It's changing the game by addressing complexities in the immigration process, paving the way for a more efficient and fair system for all.
