Family based Immigrant and Non-Immigrant Visas, K1 Fiancé Visas & K3 Spouse Visas

If you are the spouse, child, brother or sister, or parent of an individual admitted to the U.S. on either a temporary or permanent basis, you may be eligible for a temporary or permanent visa to enter the U.S. We help our clients obtain fiancé visas and green cards for spouses, parents, children, and brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens or permanent residents and assist with the naturalization and citizenship process. Alien workers admitted to the U.S. for temporary employment, study, or exchange under F1, J1, H1 and certain other categories are normally authorized to bring their spouse and minor children under derivative visas. Contact us for more information.

Fiancé Visa:

U.S. citizens may obtain a visa for their fiancé for a period of 90 days by filing a petition for Alien Fiancé (Form I-129F).  Normally, the U.S. citizen and fiancé must have met in person within the past two years.  Once the petition is approved, the fiancé is asked to come for an interview at an Embassy or Consulate abroad.  The couple must marry within 90 days of the alien fiancé’s entry into the U.S.  The U.S. Citizen then files an Application to Register Permanent Residence (I-485) or to Adjust Status with the USCIS, along with an Affidavit of Support.

Family Based Immigration:

To be eligible for lawful permanent residence based on a family relationship you must have a relative who is a United States citizen or a lawful permanent resident of the United States who is willing to sponsor you for lawful permanent residency by filing a Petition for Alien Relative (I-130).Your relative must prove they can support you by providing documentation that their income is at least 125% above the U.S. poverty level for their household size, including you and all other sponsored family members.U.S. Citizens are eligible to sponsor a husband or wife, child less than 21 years old, married son or daughter, brother or sister, or parent.  Permanent Residents can sponsor a husband or wife and unmarried son or daughter of any age.  Visa numbers for the parents, spouses, and unmarried children under 21 of U.S. citizens are immediately available. All other relatives must wait for an immigrant visa number to become available.  This waiting time varies depending on the family relationship.
