Whether you are seeking a green card for your spouse, parent, child, or other family member, we have the knowledge to guide you through the immigration process.
Family-based immigration is a process that allows citizens and permanent residents of the United States to sponsor their family members for immigration. This sponsorship is often referred to as a “petition” and can be done through various categories, such as immediate relatives or preference categories.
Immediate relatives include spouses, parents, and unmarried children under 21 years old of U.S. citizens. These relatives do not have to wait in line for a visa and are given priority by the government.
Preference categories include unmarried sons and daughters over 21 years old of U.S. citizens, married children of U.S. citizens, siblings of U.S. citizens, spouses, and unmarried children of permanent residents. These categories require the sponsored family member to wait for a visa to become available.
At Minsky McCormick & Hallagan, P.C., we offer services to address the diverse needs of immigrant families.
