Family

Based Immigration

What is Family Immigration?


Family Immigration is a process whereby a non-U.S. Citizen is allowed to either move to the United States or remain in the United States permanently by virtue of having been petitioned for by a qualifying family member.

Becoming a Lawful Permanent Resident allows you to live and work in the United States without restriction.  By becoming a Lawful Permanent Resident, you become eligible to petition for your spouse and unmarried children.

More importantly, Lawful Permanent Resident status opens the door to the pathway whereby you may become a Citizen of the United States.

How Do I Immigrate My…

spouse


There are two pathways to immigrate your spouse.
One is called Adjustment of Status
The other is called Consular Processing.

Each process has their own qualifications, filing fees, attorney fees and waiting time.

However, waiting time may not be as long as you think.

Child


The first thing we will need to know it:

What is your legal status?

Then we will ask a series of questions to determine if you qualify to immigrate your child and if your child qualifies to immigrate to the U.S.

Mom and/or Dad


For starters, I will need to know 3 things:

  1. Your legal status.

  2. Your age.

  3. Where your parents are right now.

Then we can guide you toward the best course of action to help your mom or dad immigrate — or determine if that’s the right step. We always work with your loved one’s best interests at heart. Serving you well and protecting what’s best for your family is our top priority.

Grandchild


The simplest way to explain how a grandchild can immigrate is this:


A grandchild may immigrate with their parents as long as they are under 21 years old at the time their parents immigrate.


This is only possible if the grandparent is a U.S. citizen.
