How to Sponsor Parents for a Green Card?

Overview of the Process to Sponsor Parents for a Green Card

A legal immigrant is a foreign national who has been granted the privilege of living and working permanently in the United States. There is a two-step process for your parent to become a legal immigrant. First, the USCIS must approve an immigrant visa petition that you file for your parent. Second, if your parent is outside the United States, your parent will be notified to go to the local U.S. consulate to complete the processing for an immigrant visa. If your parent is legally inside the U.S., he or she may apply to adjust his or her status to that of a lawful permanent resident using the Form I-485.

Who is Eligible to Sponsor Parents for a Green Card?

If you are a U.S. citizen and at least 21 years old, you are eligible to petition to bring your parents to live and work permanently in the United States.

If you are a lawful permanent resident, you are not eligible to petition to bring your parents to live and work permanently in the United States.

“I have contacted Goldman and Loughlin Immigration Law in order to obtain a J waiver and adjust status. Peter Loughlin was the one who helped us during this process. He's very knowledgeable and on the spot. Everything went smooth, and even though my case was alittle more complicated he managed to make everything better. One more thing that I really appreciated about Mr. Loughlin is that he has a very good time management. He does not postpone meetings, there are no delays and he is always engaged and available to answer any questions.

“When it comes to the matter of immigration; Peter Loughlin is one of the best lawyer. As he once said: He doesn't know everything about immigration, but he knows almost everything. I would highly recommend him to anyone.”

Diego Perdomo

“I can't tell you how much I appreciate these people. I didn't receive the news I wanted, but I received the truth. The entire process, from beginning to end, was a pleasure. I lost my faith in lawyers due to bad experiences from people I know, and these people have shown me that there are lawyers who care. They were passionate, prompt, organized (wow, I will stress organized). If these lawyers do not give you the answers you want, trust that it was because it just couldn't be but that they put heart, soul, and effort into your case.”
