Family Matters
There are several ways your loved ones can immigrate to the United States; however, the legal options available depend on your immigration status.
If you are a U.S. citizen, you may petition your spouse, fiancé, children and step-children, parents, and siblings to join you. If you are a permanent resident—or possess a green card— you may petition for your spouse and your unmarried children.
If you are an asylee or refugee within the past two years, you may petition for your spouse or unmarried children under 21 years of age at the time you filed your asylum or refugee petition. If you are a member of the U.S. military or married to a service member, there are special conditions.
Employment
