Family Based Immigration

Family based immigration means that you are applying for permanent residence based on your relationship to a family member. This can take the form of adjustment of status or consular processing depending on the specifics of your case. When you are applying for permanent residence (a green card), it is important to consult with an attorney to make sure you are eligible for permanent residence. Things that can cause problems in family based immigration include, but are not limited to, arrests, unlawful presence, unlawful entries, and previously denied immigration applications.  An experienced attorney can help you develop the best strategy and advocate for your best interests.
