Petitioning for Family-Based Immigration
Family-based immigration allows certain relatives of U.S. citizens and Legal Permanent Residents to petition for legal permanent residence.
Eligible family members can petition under the following categories:
- Immediate Relative: Petitioners in this category must be a spouse, child, sibling, or parent of a U.S. citizen.
- Family Preference: Petitioners in this category must have a specific and distant family relationship with a U.S. citizen. Petitioners with certain relationships with green-card holders can also petition under this category, including the adult children, married children, or siblings of U.S. citizens and the spouses and children of Legal Permanent Residents.

Commonly Asked Questions
What is consular processing and how does it work for family immigration?
Consular processing is a method for individuals outside the United States to apply for a green card through a U.S. embassy or consulate. This process is essential for those who cannot adjust their status while in the U.S. To initiate consular processing, the person petitioning must be a U.S. citizen or a lawful permanent resident. Once the petition is approved, the foreign national will attend an interview at the consulate, where they will provide necessary documentation and answer questions to obtain their immigrant visa.
