Act NOW For the Choi Family!

   Choi Family

Brothers Seul Chan and Seul Ki (also known as Chan and Ki), and their parents have called America home since coming here 17 years ago when Chan and Ki were just 6 and 8 years old. After Mr. Choi was denied work sponsorship, which he was originally promised by his employer, the family spent years exhausting numerous channels to legally adjust their status to no avail. The brothers and their father now face imminent removal orders, which will send Chan and Ki and their parents back to Korea, a country they no longer are familiar with.

 

July 1 is the brothers' upcoming hearing date. Community leaders, advocates, and the family's attorneys are pursuing all possible resources to support the Choi family, who have lived, worked and attended school in California since their arrival to the U.S. in 1994. But we also need your help. Sign the petition below to urge DHS to take immediate action to keep Chan and Ki and their father here in the U.S.
