How can I get a green card for my husband or wife?

The rules and processes are very different for those whose loved ones entered the US legally or illegally. If your spouse entered this country illegally, you are facing a very difficult and serious situation. If your spouse entered this country through legal means, you are in a much better position, but you still have much serious work cut out for you.

Either way, after 15 years of leading couples and families through this entire process, Attorney Wright has been successful in helping many, many families stay together. It is wonderful and gratifying work.

Regardless of how your husband or wife entered the US, you need a reliable, experienced immigration attorney to lead you through the critical and surprisingly complex application process. Certain forms can appear simple and straightforward. But due to the variety of details immigration authorities analyze – with concerns you are not aware of – families who attempt this by themselves often get their applications denied. If you innocently misunderstand even one small part of the paperwork, it might appear to the authorities that you are lying, and you will be denied. Topics that might seem insignificant often are in reality extremely important – such as your loved one’s previous visits to the US, or whether or not he or she is traveling abroad during the application process.

When your application is denied, US immigration does not return your filing fee to you, which can be more than $1,300. You will face one or more years of separation, more fees, and a lot of hassle.

Attorney Wright can help you do things correctly, to vastly improve your chances of success, depending on your situation. For your own peace of mind, please call us to discuss your immediate options.
