Family Based Immigration
Visa I-130 | Family Based Immigration
A large part of the American Dream is sharing it with our family. We love helping US Citizens and Legal Permanent Residents to bring their families to the United States.
This process of family based immigration has become much harder under the Trump administration but we have a 100% acceptance rate with our family petitions over the last 5 years.
We leverage technology to speed up the process while offering affordable prices. We give honest answers on how long things will take. Doing it yourself or using a non-lawyer to complete these applications is too risky in the current environment.
Let us help you bring your family to the United States or help your family member that is already in the United States and now has an opportunity to change their status.
You are eligible to obtain permanent residence (green card) through family members if you are any of the following:

Family of an American Citizen:
Includes spouse and children that are single of the citizen that is petitioning.

Frequently asked questions:
US citizens and lawful permanent residents (green card holders) who have a qualifying relationship with their family member, such as a spouse, parent, child, or sibling, may sponsor them for immigration using the I-130 form.
The processing time for family-based immigration can vary widely depending on the specific circumstances of the case, including the relationship between the sponsor and the family member, the country of origin of the family member, and any potential issues with the application. Processing times can range from several months to several years.
When submitting an I-130 petition for family-based immigration, the petitioner must provide documentation to prove their relationship with the family member they are sponsoring, as well as evidence of their own immigration status and financial ability to support the family member. This may include birth certificates, marriage certificates, and tax returns, among other documents. The family member seeking immigration may also need to provide additional documentation, such as a police clearance certificate and a medical examination.
