How to Get Your Green Card Through Marriage
Gather the Required Documentation
Applying for a green card requires gathering and submitting various documents to support your case. At Zohar Law PLLC, we can assist you in compiling the necessary documentation, which may include marriage certificates, birth certificates, passports, financial records, and more. Ensuring proper documentation from the start can help streamline the application process.
File the Petition
After compiling all the required documents, we will guide you through the process of petitioning for a green card through marriage. This includes completing and submitting Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Our knowledgeable lawyers will ensure accurate completion of the form and guide you through any potential challenges that may arise.
Attend the Marriage-Based Green Card Interview
Upon petition approval, USCIS schedules a marriage-based green card interview to evaluate the authenticity of your marriage and the validity of your application. At Zohar Law PLLC, our multilingual team (English, Spanish, Hebrew, and Portuguese) will comprehensively prepare you for the interview. We will guide you on potential questions and provide effective strategies to present your case successfully.
Conditional vs. Permanent Green Card
Depending on the length of your marriage at the time of application, you may be granted a conditional green card. Zohar Law PLLC can guide you through the process of removing the conditions attached to your green card, ensuring a seamless transition to permanent residency.
