U-visa Certification Policy

Summary

The bill creates a statewide process for law‑enforcement, prosecutors, judges and other agencies to issue the Form I‑918 Supplement B needed for U‑visa applicants. It sets a rebuttable presumption that victims are helpful unless they refuse to cooperate, requires written denial notices, and gives victims a right to ask a circuit court to review a refusal or a missed deadline. The measure also bars officials from revealing a victim’s immigration status and provides limited immunity to certifying officials.
