Immigration for Family
Becoming a lawful, permanent resident is based on the context that a relative is already a citizen of the United States or is a lawful, permanent resident under another status. There are certain key steps to be completed successfully by both the intended immigrant and the relative sponsor. The steps are as follows:
- First, the USCIS must approve an immigrant visa petition, I-130 Petition for Alien Relative, which is filed by your sponsoring relative for you.
- Second, most sponsors need to show adequate income or assets to support the intending immigrant, accepting legal, financial responsibility by completing and signing the Affidavit of Support.
- Finally when these steps are completed, the intending immigrant can apply for the immigrant visa, depending on the various types of family immigration visas.
The length of time between Step 1 and Step 3 depends on the level of the relationship with the U.S. citizen: the parent, spouse or minor child of a U.S. citizen can enter the United States or obtain a green card within several months whereas the brother or sister of a U.S. citizen may have to wait over 10 years to enter the U.S.
With the variety of family immigration visas, it is better to consult an immigration lawyer. KahBo dye-Chiew has successfully assisted many families to obtain residency in the United States.
