Family-based Immigration

The immigration lawyers at Richards and Jurusik Immigration Law have decades of combined experience in US immigration for family members of US citizens and US permanent residents (green card holders).

Although we can assist with most US immigration law matters, we have specific experience with:

  • Green cards for spouses, parents, children, and siblings of US citizens
  • K-1 Visas for fiancé(e)s
  • Green cards for spouses and children of US permanent residents (green card holders)

Green Cards for Spouses

If you are a foreign national married to a US citizen, they can petition on your behalf for a green card and permanent residence.

Green Cards for Family

If you are a foreign national and a qualifying family member of a US citizen or permanent resident, they can petition on your behalf for permanent residence.

K-1 Visas for Fiancés or Fiancées

If you are a foreign national engaged to a US citizen, your fiancé or fiancée can petition on your behalf to obtain a K-1 Visa to enter the US for the purpose of marriage.
