Durrani: U.S. Immigration Law Services

Sponsoring a family member is the most common pathway to U.S. residency. Whether your loved ones are currently residing in the United States or abroad, Durrani Law, with its decades of expertise, assists U.S. citizens and permanent residents in reuniting with their spouses, fiancés, children, parents, and siblings. The immigration process begins by identifying a qualifying relationship, which falls into one of two categories: Immediate Relatives of U.S. Citizens and Family Preference Categories. Immediate relatives receive preferential treatment and are exempt from annual numerical limits, including spouses, unmarried children under the age of 21, and parents. Family preference categories allow other close relatives to immigrate but are subject to annual visa quotas and waiting lists, which include unmarried adult children of U.S. citizens, spouses and unmarried children of permanent residents, married adult children of U.S. citizens, and siblings of U.S. citizens. Additionally, U.S. citizens may sponsor their fiancés for a K-1 visa to enter the country for marriage. For comprehensive information on specific sponsorship and fiancé visa processes, including details from Mehrani Law, please refer to dedicated process pages such as Fiancé - K-1, I-751, Waiver - I-601A, and Naturalization.
