Our Services
Family and Marriage Visas
Family-based immigration allows U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents to petition for their relatives, including spouses, parents, and children. Living near the border often involves cross-border family connections, which can complicate visa processing.
We provide guidance on:
- Petitioning for immediate relatives and preference-based family visas
- Preparing supporting documentation to demonstrate bona fide relationships

We work closely with families to help reunite loved ones and navigate the procedural and emotional challenges inherent to family immigration cases.

Obtaining a marriage-based green card requires careful preparation to meet USCIS standards. In Willacy County, couples may live on either side of the border, adding additional complexity to the application process.
