What is a legal submission letter in an immigration application?

As a law firm, when we file an immigration application, we always include what is called a "submission letter". A submission letter is a cover letter which can range anywhere between a few pages to 20 pages or more depending on the unique circumstances of your case. The submission letter is the first document that an immigration officer will see and read in order to make a determination on your file. This letter will contain facts, argumentation, case law as well as an explanation as to why the eligibility requirements are met. If you are not using a law firm to file your application, we always recommend that you add a brief cover letter at the top of your application followed by a table of contents to make the officer's review smoother.
