Family immigration lets U.S. citizens and permanent residents (LPRs) sponsor close family members for visas to live and work in the U.S. It focuses on keeping families together but can be confusing. Here’s how it works:
• For the closest family members of U.S. citizens
• No limits on numbers, meaning faster processing
• Eligible relatives:
o Spouses
o Unmarried children under 21
o Parents (if the petitioner is at least 21 years old)
Learn more about immediate relative visas here.
• For more distant family members
• Subject to yearly limits; longer waiting times
• Categories:
o F1: Unmarried adult children of U.S. citizens
o F2: Spouses, minor children, and unmarried adult children of LPRs
o F3: Married children of U.S. citizens
o F4: Siblings of U.S. citizens (if the petitioner is at least 21 years old)
The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) provides special protections for survivors of abuse. This act allows spouses, children, or parents of abusive U.S. citizens or permanent residents to self-petition for a green card without the abuser’s knowledge or involvement. Key benefits of VAWA include:
• Confidential application process
• Protection from retaliation by the abuser
• Eligibility for work authorization and access to public benefits
If you are facing abuse and need help navigating the VAWA process, our experienced Immigration Lawyers can provide compassionate and confidential support. Learn more here.
Yes, U.S. Citizens can sponsor their spouses, children, parents, and siblings. Processing times vary by relationship and circumstances:
• Spouse: Processing begins after the application is successfully filed. No one can guarantee processing times; each case is unique and subject to USCIS processing procedures.
• Sibling: Longer, depending on USCIS Processing times. If you don’t start today while eligibility may be permitted by current immigration laws, you risk never having the opportunity.
• Spouses
• Children (biological, stepchildren, or adopted)
• Parents
• Siblings
Sponsors must meet 125% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, depending on the application and is subject to changes with updates in the law. If a single sponsor is unable to meet the required guidelines, there are potentially other sponsorship options available. Call us to discuss your unique situation. Learn more here.
