Which Family Members Are Eligible to Apply for a Green Card?

Sandra Echevarria, a sole practitioner based in Miami, helps navigate the intricate paths of immigration law. Two categories of family members are eligible to apply: immediate relatives of U.S. citizens and a more expansive category, identified as "preference relatives." Immediate relatives, as per immigration law, include the spouse, unmarried minor children, and parents of the U.S. citizen, providing the U.S. citizen is 21 years old or older. The requirements for preference relatives are more intricate, subdivided into four levels. Top preference is extended to unmarried adult children of U.S. citizens, trailed by lawful permanent residents' spouses and unmarried children. The third preference is for married children of U.S. citizens, followed by the siblings of U.S. citizens, given that the U.S. citizen is at least 21 years old. Fiancés of U.S. citizens are eligible for a specific visa (fiancé visa page) and are regarded similarly to immediate relatives, given that their nuptial event happens within 90 days of their arrival. To streamline the process, engaging the services of a knowledgeable legal professional like Sandra Echevarria can ensure that everything is handled correctly. Schedule your meeting today.

How Long Will My Family Members Need to Wait?

Sandra Echevarria, based in Miami, is well-versed in navigating the complex U.S. visa application process. Immediate relatives may apply for a visa without a delay, while preference relatives are usually subjected to a wait due to the U.S. limiting the number of immigrant visas per country. It is critical for your preference relatives to submit their petitions promptly as USCIS processes these based on the submission date. In countries with a high volume of U.S. immigrant visa applications, the wait period can extend into several years before one can enter the U.S. Sandra Echevarria can provide guidance to initiate this process. Don't hesitate to reach out to her today.
