IMMEDIATE RELATIVE PETITIONS

Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens are not subject to annual visa limits, which can make these cases move more quickly.

U.S. citizens may petition for their spouse to obtain permanent residence.

Depending on the situation, the process may take place inside the United States or through a U.S. consulate abroad.

We assist with complete case preparation, supporting documentation, interview preparation, and responding to government requests.

We commonly assist couples who:

• Recently married
• Have been married for several years
• Are adjusting status after lawful entry
• Are completing the process through a U.S. consulate
