Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers before you begin

Who may file a family petition?

A U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident may petition for qualifying relatives. The available category and next steps depend on the relationship and the petitioner’s status.

Does approval of Form I-130 grant a Green Card?

No. Approval establishes the qualifying relationship. The beneficiary generally continues through consular processing or adjustment of status, when eligible and when a visa is available.

Can you help organize bona fide marriage evidence?

Yes. We can organize and label client-provided records into a clear package. We do not determine legal sufficiency or provide legal strategy.
