Who can apply for a visa under the Family Immigration law?

Whether you are a Green Card holder or a US citizen of at least 18 years of Age, you are eligible to file a petition or be at least 21 years of Age to sponsor certain specific family members who can apply for Green Cards for their family members under the Family Immigration law.

Remember, a US citizen can sponsor their spouse, children (married or unmarried), parents, and siblings. On the other hand, Green Card holders can only sponsor their spouse and unmarried children.

What is the basic eligibility to become a sponsor?

Suppose you want to sponsor a family member for a Green Card. In that case, you first need to prove that you have a bona fide and verifiable relationship with the family member and that you have enough financial resources to support the family member if they are in the country.

Which family members can one sponsor?

You can’t sponsor green cards for every relative or family member under the Family Immigration law. As a sponsor based out of Texas and a US citizen, you can sponsor

• Unmarried Sons & Daughters aged 21 or above under the F1 Family preference Category
• Married Sons & Daughters under the F2 Family preference category
• Brothers and Sisters under the F4 Family preference category
• Spouse under the Immediate relative category
• Unmarried kids below 21 years of age under the Immediate relative category
• Parents under the immediate relative category

On the other hand, if you are a Green Card holder or a Law Permanent resident based out of Texas, you can sponsor

• Spouse and unmarried children below the age of 21 under the F2A Family preference category.
• Unmarried sons and daughters aged 21 or above under the F2B Family preference category.

How should you prepare yourself?

Suppose you want to file for a Green Card for a family member under the Family Immigration law, irrespective of your status. In that case, you need to have enough documentation to show there is a bona fide relationship between you and the family member. The basic documents one should be ready with

• For Spouse, a copy of the marriage certificate and, if there are previous marriages, documentary proof of termination.
• For children or sons and daughters, a copy of their birth certificate showing the parent-child relationship, and, in case you have adopted them, the adoption decree.
• For Parents, a copy of your birth certificate showing the parent-child relationship with them.
• For Siblings, your and your siblings’ birth certificates and proof of the common parent’s identity.

Why should you hire a Family Immigration attorney?

Filing for Green Cards for your family members is a complex, multi-stage process that involves multiple petitions. The wait times are very long and span years. Understanding which form is critical at which stage, when to file a particular form, and which documents are necessary to avoid rejections or USCIS RFEs is very important. Our family immigration attorney in Texas is always here to provide practical legal advice and services that make the process of obtaining green cards for your family members as seamless as possible. Having an attorney by your side makes it easier to handle the application process. They can always double-check your petition & documents and guide you with errors.

When you hire an attorney for this procedure, they will go over the board and the application timeline with you, so you know what to anticipate and are completely ready. The attorney can track changes to the time-sensitive Visa Bulletin and prepare in advance when the priority date becomes current on either of the tables. An experienced Family Immigration Attorney can ensure they are detailed and comprehensive to assure the best possible results for your specific problem and help you fulfill your dream of bringing your family members to the country.
