The bond of family is a powerful force, and the dream of building a life together in the United States is a journey we deeply respect.

We understand that navigating the immigration system to reunite with your loved ones can be an intensely stressful and emotional process. When your future feels uncertain, we are here to offer the compassionate support and resolute advocacy you deserve.
Family-based immigration is a cornerstone of U.S. law, allowing citizens and lawful permanent residents to sponsor certain relatives for a green card. This process is your pathway to ensuring your loved ones can live, work, and build a future with you. Whether you are seeking to bring a spouse, child, parent, or sibling to the country, each path has specific legal requirements that must be met with precision.
As a general rule, only immediate relatives of U.S. citizens are eligible for family-based immigration. This includes spouses, children under 21 years old, and parents (if the citizen is over 21 years old). For all other relatives, there are limited visa numbers available each year and a lengthy waiting period.
It’s important to note that eligibility also depends on the sponsor’s legal status in the United States. Lawful permanent residents can only sponsor certain relatives, while U.S. citizens have more options.
