The relationship is the starting point
The available process depends on the qualifying family relationship, the petitioner’s U.S. citizenship or permanent residence, and the beneficiary’s circumstances. Marriage alone does not grant immigration status or work authorization.
The right process depends on your history
Adjustment of status inside the United States and consular processing abroad are different procedures. I review your location and immigration history before advising on the route. In a marriage case, records of your actual shared life help explain the relationship.
START WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
Your preparation checklist
- The family relationship and the petitioner’s status.
- A brief relationship timeline and each person’s current country.
- A summary of prior U.S. entries and immigration matters for individual review.
