Family immigration is a cornerstone of U.S. immigration policy, allowing citizens and lawful permanent residents to reunite with their loved ones and build a life together. These cases encompass a wide range of scenarios, including spousal visas, fiancé(e) visas, green card applications for immediate relatives, and family preference categories for siblings and adult children.
The process begins with a family member in the U.S. filing a petition on behalf of their relative. This often requires submitting extensive documentation to prove the relationship, meeting income requirements to act as a financial sponsor, and, in some cases, addressing potential obstacles such as prior immigration violations or criminal records. Depending on the applicant’s circumstances, the case may proceed through U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the Department of State for consular processing, or even immigration courts.
