THE ORGANIZATION IS A BI-NATIONAL, DIRECT LEGAL SERVICES ORGANIZATION SERVING INDIGENT DEPORTEES, MIGRANTS, AND REFUGEES IN TIJUANA, MEXICO. THE BULK OF OUR SERVICES ARE IMMIGRATION-RELATED. HOWEVER, THE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE WE SERVE ARE DIVERSE, SO WE ALSO COORDINATE WITH ATTORNEYS AND NON-LEGAL PROFESSIONALS IN A RANGE OF AREAS SUCH AS FAMILY LAW, LABOR LAW, CRIMINAL LAW (PARTICULARLY POST-CONVICTION RELIEF), AND EMPLOYMENT LAW. WE ALSO ASSIST FAMILIES WITH ASPECTS OF REUNIFICATION IN MEXICO WHEN IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED BY U.S. AUTHORITIES THAT IT IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE CHILD TO LIVE WITH HIS OR HER PARENT IN MEXICO. WE WORK WITH NON-CUSTODIAL DEPORTED PARENTS TO ENSURE THEIR RIGHTS AS PARENTS ARE PROTECTED IN THE UNITED STATES FAMILY COURT SYSTEM. (Less)
Ratings are calculated from one or more beacon scores. Currently, we require either an Accountability & Finance beacon or an Impact & Results beacon to be eligible for a Charity Navigator rating. Note: The absence of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment; it only indicates that we have not yet evaluated this organization.
See rating report below to learn why this organization is not currently eligible.
We recognize that not all metrics and beacons equally predict a charity’s success. The percentage each beacon contributes to the organization’s overall rating depends on the number of beacons an organization has earned.
Use the tool below to select different beacons to see how the weighting shifts when only one, two, or three beacons are earned.
Rating histories are available for a growing number of rated organizations. Check back later to see if this organization has a rating history!
Al Otro Lado Inc. cannot currently be evaluated by our Accountability & Finance methodology due to only having 2 years of electronically-filed IRS Form 990 data. But please note, that the IRS is significantly delayed in processing nonprofit's annual tax filings. That may mean that this entity has electronically filed additional Forms 990 but they have yet to be processed and made public by the IRS.
To ensure year-to-year consistency the Encompass Rating System's Finance & Accountability beacon analyzes the three-year average of some data provided through the IRS 990.
Charity Navigator currently only has 2 years of consecutive e-filed Forms 990 from the IRS for Al Otro Lado Inc. under the EIN: 47-2910078.
Before Charity Navigator can evaluate Al Otro Lado Inc., Al Otro Lado Inc. will need to e-file for additional fiscal years.
