The right immigration strategy depends on your family’s
individual circumstances.

FAQ
Family Immigration Questions
Family-based immigration is a category of U.S. immigration that may allow eligible family members of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents to pursue certain immigration benefits, depending on the applicable requirements.
In some circumstances, a qualifying family relationship may provide an immigration pathway. Eligibility depends on factors such as the petitioner’s status, the family relationship, and the circumstances of the person seeking immigration benefits.
Not necessarily. A family relationship may provide a basis for certain immigration benefits, but eligibility for lawful permanent residence depends on the applicable immigration category and the individual’s circumstances.
Documents can vary depending on the immigration pathway. They may include identity documents, evidence of the qualifying family relationship, immigration records, and other supporting evidence required for the particular matter.
If you are unsure which family immigration pathway may apply, what documents are required, or how your immigration history could affect the process, discussing the circumstances with a qualified immigration lawyer may help you understand your options.
