Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What Visas Are Available for Immediate Relatives?

A: Foreign nationals often seek to come to the US based on a relationship with a US citizen or lawful permanent resident. However, these visas can be complicated with many requirements based on your family relationship. For example, IR visas are typically awarded to immediate relatives, such as a spouse, child, or parent. Another type of visa that can be helpful is the conditional or C-category visa. These documents must be renewed more often, but can be a gateway to permanent residency and US citizenship. Call our office to learn what type of visa is right for you.

Q: How Can I Get a Green Card Based on a U Visa?

A: Getting a green card is a crucial step on the path to naturalization. For some individuals who may not qualify for a green card, a U visa can be helpful. These visas apply to victims of serious crimes, such as murder, kidnapping, stalking, perjury, or human trafficking. The victim will need to contribute to an investigation and comply with other requirements. To help determine whether a U visa is right for you and to get started with your application, please get in touch with the Law Office of Nancy Reyes Guarderas, A.P.C., right away.

Q: What Immigration Options Do I Have as an Abuse Victim?

A: Abuse victims have an additional burden as they seek legal entry or stay in the United States. Without the support of an abusive US citizen or permanent resident family member, deportation might seem like the only outcome. However, the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) permits abuse victims, including men, women, and children, to avoid deportation through a self-petition process. This law can also help abuse survivors obtain residency despite conditions that might otherwise disqualify them. Reach out to us immediately for allies who will protect your legal rights.

Q: What Documents Are Required to Enter the US Legally?

A: The exact documents required for a visa or lawful residence depend on your immigration path. However, many petitions share similar requirements, such as proof of residency of a US citizen family member, proof of relationship, such as a marriage document or birth certificate, and passport photos. Please keep in mind that you’ll also need to pay filing fees and other costs as you seek to immigrate. Our immigration lawyers can help fill out your application to minimize the chance of delays or denials. Call our Los Angeles County firm to learn more!

Q: What Are the Basic Steps of Getting a Visa Based on Marriage?

A: Entering the US based on marriage can be difficult, especially with the stringent USCIS policies and suspicion against immigrants coming to the country based on marriage. You’ll start by filing the right petition for a visa based on whether you are currently married or plan to marry. You will then submit evidence to prove that your relationship is valid and not a scam. An immigration attorney can help gather paperwork, bank statements, photos, and other documents that give you the best chance at approval for a marriage-based visa. Call Abogada Nancy today to get started!

Q: How Does Military Parole-in-Place Work?

A: US law allows military families to enjoy many benefits based on their family member’s dedicated service to the country. One benefit is military parole-in-place laws. With parole-in-place, the family member of a service member may avoid deportation, even if they might otherwise be disqualified due to unlawful entry into the United States. It can provide a pathway to a work authorization and possibly permanent residence. Obtaining parole-in-place can be crucial for your family to stay together on US soil, but the process can be complicated. Please get legal advice for your unique situation by contacting the Law Office of Nancy Reyes Guarderas, A.P.C., immediately.

Q: How Can Your Legal Team Help Me With the Consular Process?

A: Many immigrants must go through the consular process in their own country before they can come to or return to the United States. This involves proving you are eligible to immigrate, such as based on family relationships, work sponsors, or asylum. You’ll also need to file a petition with USCIS and go through an interview process at the consular office or embassy in your home country. For more information about how to successfully navigate the consular process and achieve your immigration dreams, call our legal team right away. We’ll help you determine the next step and handle various aspects of the process that many people find difficult. With our representation, you’ll get the best chance of approval for legal entry into the US!

Q: What Should I Look for in the Best Immigration Law Team?

A: Choosing the right immigration team can be one of the most important decisions you’ll make. With the right immigration lawyer on your side, you can rest assured that your case will be handled with care and skill. When choosing an immigration lawyer, you might want to consider their experience, willingness to take on complex cases, and confidence in your unique immigration matter.
