Family Immigration Lawyers for Green Cards in Talbotton, GA

A Family Preference Green Card  permits particular family members of people who are either U.S. citizens or permanent residents to gain permanent residency in Talbotton, GA and all of the United States. If someone is a U.S. citizen, relatives eligible to come to the U.S. under this type of green card include minor and adult children, spouses and siblings (if the citizen is 21 years or older). If someone is a lawful permanent resident, relatives who could qualify for this type of green card include unmarried children and spouses.

Permanent residency cards based on family preference differ in process from immediate family green cards, which are designed for the parents, minor children, and spouses of U.S. citizens. A family green card attorney near you in Talbotton, GA can assist your family in determining the appropriate category of green card to apply for, helping you unite with your family to build or expand your life in the U.S. together.

How Do Talbotton, GA Family-Based Green Cards Work?

First, the Talbotton, GA family member who is a US citizen or permanent resident needs to file Form I-130, also called the Petition for Alien Relative. The form demonstrates the connection necessary for the sponsorship. As soon as that form is approved, the family member who is not in the United States must wait for visas to become accessible depending on when they applied and the current visa limits imposed by law. If the applicant is already in the U.S. legally, they can apply for their status to be adjusted through form I-485 and others.

Each eligible type of relative has a defined preference categorization, which has a set annual cap specific to that category. F1, for example, which is First Preference, is designated for unmarried children who are 21 or older of United States citizens. F1 is allocated 23,400 of 226,000 available yearly family preference green cards. Many Talbotton, GA applicants end up waiting for years or in some cases, even decades for family-sponsored green cards to become available.
