The United States is a country of immigrants, and a nation that values families and workers who contribute to society. When it comes to applying for an immigration visa, a foreign citizen must be sponsored by a qualifying family member or employer who will file a petition with U.S. Citizen and Immigration Services (USCIS) on their behalf. Because the petition process can be a difficult and confusing process, ensuring accuracy and taking the right steps is critical to being approved.<\/p>\n
At Joey Gilbert Law, and through our partners, we assist individuals, families, and employers in sponsoring foreign citizens through petitions with USCIS. We also handle immigration matters regarding applications to replace permanent resident cards (green cards) and applications for naturalization (citizenship). Backed by extensive experience and resources, our team takes a personalized approach toward handling all legal work involved in order to reduce the chances of delays and denials. We want to help our clients\u2019 immigration dreams become a reality.<\/p>\n

Family-based immigration allows certain eligible family members to petition on behalf of relatives who want to obtain immigrant visas that allow them to live and work in the United Stated. There are two groups of family-based immigrant visa categories: (1) Immediate Relatives and (2) Family Preference.<\/p>\n
