Family Immigration Options

If you are a U.S. citizen, you can file a petition to sponsor certain close family members to come live with you from their home country. Family members who might be eligible for visas include:

  • Fiancés
  • Spouses
  • Parents
  • Minor or adult children

Lawful permanent residents can also petition for spouses and children, but not other relatives.

First, you must petition for a family-related visa for your relative. This visa application involves substantial amounts of information, and a small error or omission can result in long delays or denials. There already might be a waiting period, and you do not want to cause unnecessary delays by not having the right legal assistance.

Once someone obtains a family-related visa, they might be eligible to apply for a green card and lawful permanent residency status. A green card comes with certain benefits that a visa does not provide, including providing a path to naturalization and citizenship.
