FAMILY PETITION FAQs
1. What is a Green Card?
A Green Card, officially known as Form I-551, is a document that allows a foreign national to live and work permanently in the United States without restrictions.
2. How can a family member help me obtain a Green Card?
A qualifying relative, such as a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, can file an immigrant petition on your behalf called Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative. This form establishes the familial relationship between you and the petitioner. Supporting documents proving this relationship, like birth or marriage certificates, must be included. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) must approve this petition before you can proceed to the next stage.
3. What happens after the I-130 petition is approved?
Once the I-130 petition is approved, you must wait for a visa number to become available through the U.S. Department of State. Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens (spouses, unmarried children under 21, and parents) have visas available immediately. Other relatives fall into family-sponsored preference categories, which have annual limits, leading to potential waiting periods. You can monitor visa availability by checking your priority date in the Department of State's Visa Bulletin, published monthly.
4. What are the family-sponsored preference categories?
Family-based immigrant visas are divided into preference categories:
First Preference (F1): Unmarried sons and daughters (21 or older) of U.S. citizens.
Second Preference (F2A): Spouses and children (unmarried and under 21) of lawful permanent residents.
Second Preference (F2B): Unmarried sons and daughters (21 or older) of lawful permanent residents.
Third Preference (F3): Married sons and daughters of U.S. citizens.
Fourth Preference (F4): Brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens (if the U.S. citizen is at least 21 years old).
Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens (spouses, unmarried children under 21, and parents) are not subject to these preference categories and have visas available immediately.
5. What is a priority date?
A priority date is generally the date when your relative properly filed the immigrant visa petition (Form I-130) on your behalf with USCIS. This date determines your place in line for a visa number. You can check the current status of priority dates in the Department of State's Visa Bulletin.
6. What is the process if I am already in the United States?
If you are in the U.S. and a visa number becomes available, you may apply to adjust your status to permanent resident by filing Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status. If you are outside the U.S. when a visa number becomes available, you must complete the process through your local U.S. consulate, often by filing Form DS-260, Immigrant Visa Application.
7. How long does the I-130 petition process take?
Processing times for the I-130 petition can vary based on factors like the relationship between the petitioner and beneficiary, the beneficiary's country of residence, and USCIS workload. Generally, it takes several months to over a year for an I-130 petition to be processed.
8. Can I file an I-130 petition if I am not a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident?
No, only U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents are eligible to file I-130 petitions on behalf of their qualifying relatives.
9. Can I file an I-130 petition for my fiancé(e)?
No, the I-130 petition is not used for fiancé(e) visas. Instead, U.S. citizens can file Form I-129F, Petition for Alien Fiancé(e), to bring their fiancé(e) to the United States for the purpose of getting married.
10. What happens after USCIS approves the I-130 petition?
Once USCIS approves the I-130 petition, it is forwarded to the National Visa Center (NVC) for further processing. The beneficiary will then need to complete additional forms and attend a visa interview at a U.S. embassy or consulate in their home country before immigrating to the United States.
