Frequently Asked Questions:
Which visa applies to my situation?
Family visas allow immigrants to become permanent residents through a family member who is already a resident or a citizen of the United States. First, a family member files a petition on your behalf, this person is also called a “sponsor”.
Your sponsor has to meet age, relationship, and income requirements. It’s very important that you contact an attorney to check those requirements before applying!
Family-based immigration at first glance can seem like an easy process. However, the ever-changing and ever-evolving laws can create obstacles along the way and make it more difficult than it needs to be.
Obtaining help from an experienced attorney can help your family avoid mistakes and risk having your petition rejected completely and put you at risk of deportation.
How Long Is the Wait for a Family Visa?
It depends on the circumstances of every family’s case. For example, for an unlimited visa situation, the visa results in a much faster process, because the immigrant family member does not have to wait for a visa to become available. If you are waiting for a Preference visa, however, at least one year to learn when the visa will become available.
