Immediate Relatives

Boston, Massachusetts Family Visa Lawyer

For over 38 years, our lawyers at Ginsburg & Gaynor have been providing clients with comprehensive and tailored immigration representation. Our firm understands the concerns our clients have upon being separated from family members, and confidently handles many family immigration cases. We strive to explain the options our clients have for bringing members of their family to the U.S. via a family visa. In some cases, the family member must be an immediate relative and possess a specific qualifying factor.

The term "immediate relative" is applied to a range of family situations, including:

• The spouse of a U.S. citizen.
• Children of a U.S. citizen (minor children under the age of 21).
• Parents of a U.S. citizen (the petitioner / citizen must be 21 years old or older).
• The spouse of a deceased U.S. citizen who was married at least two years before their U.S. citizen spouse’s death. Also, the petition must be filed within two years of the death anniversary of the spouse and while still unmarried.
• A child born after an immediate relative visa has been issued, but before the visa is used to apply for admission to the U.S.

Our firm has handled over 20,000 immigration cases throughout the life of our practice. We have an extensive network of resources in addition to thorough knowledge of the U.S. immigration laws. When meeting with one of our attorneys, you can discuss your individual situation and how a family visa may possibly be obtained for your immediate relatives.
