Yes. We can help you apply for a visa for your family member to eventually become a legal permanent resident.

The process and length of time varies depending on what classification US immigration law places your family member into—either “immediate relatives” or “priority-based relatives.”

According to US immigration law, “immediate relatives” fall into one of the following three categories:

• Spouse of a US citizen;
• Parent of a US citizen, 21 years or older;
• Sons and daughters of US citizens, under 21 years old (includes step-children in certain situations) 

According to US immigration law, “priority-based relatives” fall into one of the following categories:

• Unmarried sons and daughters of US citizens, 21 years or older
• Spouse or child of legal permanent residents
• Unmarried sons and daughters of legal permanent residents, under 21 years old
• Sons and daughters of US citizens, 21 years or older
• Married sons and daughters of US citizens, 21 years or older
• Brothers or sisters of US citizens

Grounds of Inadmissibility can include but are not limited to the following:

• Entering the country without a visa
• Overstaying a visa
• Criminal convictions
