Please carefully read these instructions, which are also available in Spanish, before contacting the Division.


A person may not engage in an activity of an immigration consultant for compensation unless the person is either exempt under Utah Code Ann. § 13-49-201 (1)(b) or registered with the Division under § 13-49-201(1)(a).
