Based in Queens, New York, our immigration lawyer represents clients throughout New York City and across all 50 states in matters involving marriage-based Green Cards, petitions for spouses, children, parents, and siblings, adjustment of status, consular processing, and fianc\u00e9 visas. Navigating the family immigration process through the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.uscis.gov\/family\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)<\/a>\u00a0can be complicated and emotionally stressful, especially when your family\u2019s future is at stake. Our family immigration attorney provides personalized legal guidance, direct attorney access, and aggressive advocacy to help clients avoid delays, denials, and unnecessary complications while pursuing lawful permanent residence and immigration benefits for their loved ones.<\/p><h3><span style=\"color: #eaa719;\">Sponsoring Family as a Green Card Holder<\/span><\/h3><p>Green card holders can petition for specific close relatives to become permanent residents, including:<\/p><ul><li>Your spouse<\/li><li>Your unmarried children under 21<\/li><li>Your unmarried children of any age<\/li><\/ul><p>While this process involves government forms, supporting documents, and proof of relationship, you don\u2019t have to handle it alone. Our team will help you gather what you need and prepare a strong, accurate petition tailored to your family\u2019s unique circumstances.<\/p><h3><span style=\"color: #eaa719;\">Sponsoring Family as a U.S. Citizen<\/span><\/h3><p>U.S. citizens have even broader options when it comes to keeping their families together. You can petition for:<\/p><ul><li>Your spouse<\/li><li>Your unmarried children under 21<\/li><li>Your married or unmarried children over 21<\/li><li>Your parents<\/li><li>Your siblings (if you are over 21)<\/li><\/ul><p>Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens\u2014like spouses, young children, and parents\u2014don\u2019t have to wait for a visa to become available. For everyone else, immigration law uses \u201cpreference categories,\u201d which determine wait times based on family relationship, country of origin, and the number of visas issued each year.<\/p><h3><span style=\"color: #eaa719;\">Family Preference Categories<\/span><\/h3><p>When a family member doesn\u2019t qualify as an immediate relative, they may still be eligible under one of these preference categories:<\/p><ul><li><strong>First Preference (F1):<\/strong> Unmarried sons and daughters (21 or older) of U.S. citizens<\/li><li><strong>Second Preference (F2A):<\/strong> Spouses and unmarried children (under 21) of green card holders<\/li><li><strong>Second Preference (F2B):<\/strong> Unmarried sons and daughters (21 or older) of green card holders<\/li><li><strong>Third Preference (F3):<\/strong> Married sons and daughters of U.S. citizens<\/li><li><strong>Fourth Preference (F4):<\/strong> Siblings of U.S. citizens (21 or older)<\/li><\/ul><p>Because these visas are limited, the process can take time\u2014but you won\u2019t be waiting alone.
