What Is Family-Based Immigration?
Immigrants who want to obtain legal residency in the United States may be able to do so through family relationships. There are many ways to obtain legal residency through a family member and knowing your options with the assistance of an immigration attorney can help you get through the process of immigration law much easier.
Relation to a U.S. Citizen:
To apply for legal residency through an immediate relative under immigration law, you must meet one of the following requirements:
- You are a spouse of a U.S. citizen; or
- You are an unmarried child of a U.S. citizen and under 21 years of age; or
- You are a parent of a U.S. citizen who is at least 21 years old.
Relation to a Lawful Permanent Resident:
To apply for legal residency through a non-immediate relative or a lawful permanent resident (LPR), you must meet one of the following requirements:
- You are at least 21 years of age, are unmarried, and have a parent that is a U.S. citizen;
- You are at least 21 years of age, are married, and have a parent that is a U.S. citizen; or
- You are at least 21 years of age and have a sibling that is a U.S. citizen.
Relation to a U.S. Citizen Fiance(e):
U.S. citizens who want to marry a foreign national and bring them to the U.S. must file a K-1 fiancé visa petition before getting married. To be eligible for a fiancé visa, the following requirements must be met:
- You are a U.S. citizen petitioning your fiancé(e);
- You met your fiancé(e) in person within the past two years; and
- You and your fiancé(e) have both dissolved all prior marriages through a divorce, annulment, or death of a former spouse.

Make the Call! Call the VanNoy Firm first!! I spent days, calling around to different firms seeking legal assistance. Our lives can change in an instant and if you are faced with a legal challenge, call the VanNoy Firm! I was blessed to have the support, guidance and overall experience that I did with the VanNoy Firm. Kristie Gotwald represented me in a Child Custody Case. Kristie’s commitment to my case was exceptional. Kristie’s communication, not only with me but also with the court and the opposing layer, kept me confident that Kristie was continuing to fight for justice everyday.…
