Relatives migration

According to the immigration law of the United States, American citizens aged 265,438+0 or above have the legal qualification to apply for permanent residence and residence of their parents in the United States. Permanent legal residents of the United States (green card holders) do not have this qualification. The meaning of "parents" in American immigration law includes: biological parents (whether born in wedlock or not), stepparents and adoptive parents. However, if an American citizen obtains citizenship through legal adoption, he no longer has the right to apply for the permanent residence of his biological parents in the United States.

Because the parents of American citizens are immediate family members, American immigration law stipulates that there is no limit on the number of immigrant visas for parents of American citizens to apply for green cards. If the parents of American citizens are outside the United States, their children can apply for I- 130 first, and the materials to be submitted include American citizenship paper, birth notarization (father's name is required), parents' marriage certificate, etc. After I- 130 is approved, I will wait for the notice from the American visa center, then prepare the financial guarantee and apply for an immigrant visa at the Guangzhou Consulate. After the immigrant visa is passed, you can go to the United States for permanent residence. If the parents of American citizens are already in the United States and have entered the country as legal non-immigrants, they can apply for adjustment of their status. In this case, they must apply to the Immigration Bureau through the "two-in-one" application procedure of I- 130/I-485, and get approval after the interview.
