Adjustment of status
Adjustment refers to the process of changing one’s status, either from a temporary visa or having no legal status, with the goal of obtaining permanent residency in the United States. The individual must meet various legal requirements. Let’s explore the best option for you.
Naturalization (citizenship)
We specialize in naturalization cases. Consult with us to determine if you qualify for any exceptions to the English language requirement in your exam and interview. Additionally, inquire about exemptions for taking the English and civics test due to medical disabilities. Our extensive experience is backed by hundreds of successful cases.
Waivers
Learn about the process of the misnamed ‘pardon/forgiveness’ – a legal procedure allowing qualified individuals to request a federal government exception for residency requirements. The specific waiver needed and its specific process depend on the legal requirement being addressed, such as illegal presence, prior deportations, criminal issues, health concerns, and more. Navigating this complex legal area is best done with guidance from a specialized attorney. Consult with a legal expert to assess the feasibility of pursuing this process in your specific situation.
Family petition
Through a family petition, the existence of a relationship between a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident and some family members is acknowledged. The individuals eligible for this process vary depending on the petitioner’s status. For instance, U.S. citizens can file a petition for their spouse, unmarried children under 21, unmarried children 21 or older, and married children of any age. However, to file a petition for siblings and parents, the citizen must be at least 21 years old.
On the other hand, if the person wishing to ‘petition’ for their family members is a permanent resident, they can only do so for their spouse, unmarried children under 21, and unmarried children 21 or older. Additionally, understanding the specific process for each category is crucial, as it influences the processing time required to move on to the next step.
It’s vital to understand that a family petition alone does not confer rights; it merely recognizes relationships. Therefore, it is recommended to schedule a legal consultation to ensure that the beneficiary can proceed with the residency (green card) application.
TN Visas
The TN visa or status is granted temporarily and exclusively to citizens of Mexico and Canada. Among various requirements, the beneficiary must have the sponsorship of an employer and perform business activities for a U.S. entity in 1of the 63 professional occupations listed in NAFTA for an entity established in the United States. It is important to note that the beneficiary must have the required academic qualifications and, in some cases, relevant work experience.
