Bring Your Loved Ones Home!

As a U.S. citizen, you have the unique opportunity to unite with your immediate family— spouses, minor children, and parents—without the stress of waiting lists or annual caps. At the Law Office of Steven C. Benke, we are dedicated to guiding you every step of the way, from the moment you choose to petition until your family member attends their final consulate interview.

To petition, you must be over 21. While there are no delays in visa availability, it's vital to understand that USCIS closely reviews the legitimacy of marriages and relationships during the I-130 petition process. Our experienced team will help you navigate these critical aspects, ensuring that all necessary details are addressed, including previous marriages and current legal standings.
