What is Family-Based Immigration?

Family-based immigration is a process through which U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents can sponsor certain family members for permanent residency in the United States. This allows family members to live and work in the U.S. permanently.

There are two different types of family-based immigration categories: immediate relatives and family preference categories.

Immediate Relatives:

The following are considered immediate relatives under U.S. immigration law:

• Spouses of U.S. citizens
• Unmarried minor children (under 21 years old) of U.S. citizens
• Parents of U.S. citizens (if the citizen is over 21 years old)

Immediate relatives do not have numerical limits on the number of visas issued each year, making the process faster than other family-based immigration categories.

Family Preference Categories:

The following are considered family preference categories under U.S. immigration law:

• Unmarried adult children (over 21 years of age) of U.S. citizens
• Spouses and unmarried minor children of lawful permanent residents
• Married adult children (over 21 years old) of U.S. citizens
• Brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens (if the citizen is over 21 years old)

There are numerical limits on the number of visas issued in these categories each year, which can result in longer wait times for processing.
