Family Green Cards 

Secure Your Famiy's Future in the United States

At Koloko Immigration, we specialize in uniting families through the Family-Based Green Card process. If you are a U.S. citizen or a lawful permanent resident (green card holder), you may be able to sponsor certain family members for lawful permanent residence in the United States, allowing them to live, work, and build a life here with you.

Understanding the Two Main Pathways

The process for obtaining a family-based green card generally follows one of two paths, depending on where your relative is located:

  1. Consular Processing: This is for family members who are living outside the United States. The process is managed through a U.S. embassy or consulate in their home country.

  2. Adjustment of Status: This is for family members who are already legally inside the United States. It allows them to apply for their green card without having to leave.

The Key Steps in the Family Green Card Process

Navigating this process requires meticulous preparation and a thorough understanding of U.S. immigration law. The journey typically involves:

  • Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative: Filed by the U.S. sponsor to establish the qualifying family relationship.

  • Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status: The formal application for the green card itself (filed within the U.S.).

  • Form I-864, Affidavit of Support: A legally binding contract where the sponsor demonstrates sufficient financial means to support the immigrating family member.

  • Compiling Robust Evidence: Gathering all necessary documentation, such as birth and marriage certificates, proof of bona fide family relationships, and financial records.
