American relative immigration application steps

First, their relatives are American citizens or permanent residents and apply to the regional center of the Immigration Bureau. The basic information required for the application is as follows:

(1) Ask the local immigration office for a relative visa application form, that is, 1- 130 form, and fill it out carefully as required, detailing the relative relationship between the applicant and the applicant in Ming and their respective real situations.

(2) The applicant must show his identity certificate. If you are an American citizen, you must provide a birth certificate or a naturalization certificate, that is, a citizenship certificate. If you are a foreigner, you must provide a legal residence certificate, that is, the l- 15 1 form, that is, a "green card".

(3) Proof of kinship between the beneficiary and the applicant. For example, a marriage certificate that proves the relationship between spouses can prove the relationship between children, parents, brothers and sisters, and a birth certificate, including the date and place of birth, parents' names, etc. These certificates are generally issued by the notary office where the beneficiary is located in duplicate, one of which is translated into English and submitted to the US Immigration Bureau after being approved by the US Embassy or Consulate General. After the submitted immigration documents are examined and approved by the Immigration Bureau, the Immigration Bureau will issue an immigration visa approval notice to the applicant, and the applicant will then send the entry approval notice to the beneficiary or consulate.

When the Immigration Bureau approves its immigration application, it will send a notice of approval to the American applicant, and at the same time, it will send another set of relevant approval documents to the American consulate of the beneficiary's country. After receiving the approval documents from the Immigration Bureau, the consulate will send a notice and detailed requirements to the beneficiaries. Beneficiaries should complete relevant certificates, and generally need to prepare the following documents;

(1) Fill in the resume (form-179) of the visa applicant sent by embassies and consulates in China, USA, and fill it out and send it to embassies and consulates in China as soon as possible.

(2) Apply to the local notary office for birth certificate, marriage certificate and other kinship certificates.

(3) Any applicant over the age of 16 must also apply to the local notary office for a certificate of innocence to prove that the applicant has never committed a crime. If there is a crime, the crime and sentence must be stated.

(4) Physical examination certificate (issued by a hospital recognized by the consulate).

(5) A life guarantee issued by American relatives, which proves that the applicant will not become an economic guarantee for the American public after entering the United States. This certificate must be notarized. Generally, the above documents need to be prepared in duplicate, and the Chinese certificate must be accompanied by an English translation. If necessary, you must also prepare a photo with your relatives in the United States and previous letters (there must be an original envelope to prove that the relatives are reliable). After all the application materials are ready, they can be sent to embassies and consulates in China, USA.

After the immigration quota is issued, the consulate will send another message to the beneficiaries, including:

interview notification

Interview information

Physical list

Apply for immigrant visa and foreigner registration card.

When applying for an immigrant visa interview, the consular officer will review all the documents submitted by the applicant, including the physical examination form and the affidavit of life security. Consular officials will approve immigrant visas after confirming that there is no reason for refusing them. The visa is valid for 4 months, and the applicant must enter the United States during this period. Immigration inspectors will check when entering the country, and only when there is no problem will the applicant's passport be stamped with the certificate of temporary permanent residence. At this time, even if the applicant obtains permanent residency, it will take about 3 months to get a formal green card.
