PREFERENCE RELATIVES


PREFERENCE RELATIVES

This is an area of great frustration for many people because of the long waits. There is a chart of waiting periods and our program explains how to read and understand it. Certain countries have bigger backlogs than others.

This area includes the following categories:

1. Unmarried sons and daughters of U.S. citizens
2. Spouses and unmarried children of Green Card holders
Unmarried sons and daughters of Green Card holders
3. Married sons and daughters of U.S. citizens
4. Brothers and Sisters of U.S. citizens

The fourth category is useless to you and our program will explain why. If you are planning to petition your brother or sister, rather than waiting a decade or more, you are better off figuring out another method of entering the United States and we will provide you with all the options.

These categories cause you two problems. First, of course, is the long wait. Second, in most cases, these people who are being sponsored are not allowed to visit the U.S. until they receive their Green Cards. The problem is that they are ‘Intending Immigrants under section 214(b). You need to understand this code section and what it means to you as it is the most popular code section quoted to immigration lawyers by people who are denied entry.

As you see, there are many issues that must be addressed. You need to know immigration law before you put your future in anybody’s hands because ultimately, you are responsible for your future. If someone else makes a mistake, it will be you who lose.

Our CEO (Chief Executive Officer) will never forget a horrible case in which a client found an inexpensive attorney who promised to obtain a work-related Green Card for an entire family for $5,000. Well, 4 years later, after all the extras, it cost $27,000 and they lost the case? Why? The lawyer simply chose the wrong category for the client and the immigration department held the client responsible for what the lawyer did. Now, after all that money and all that work, they have to leave the United States. It’s your future, take control of it.
