All immigrants have dreams.
- The ability to get a higher paying job and support your family here and abroad
- The opportunity for your children to someday go to college or join the military
- The chance to buy a home for your spouse and kids
Most likely, your own goals include all of the above.
You may not know how to get there from where you are right now.
Perhaps you entered the U.S. without permission or overstayed your visa exit date. You fear getting arrested and deported by immigration officers.
Yet, maybe there is a way to help you.
If there is an answer for your needs, we’ll do our best to help you find it.

Family Visas – The first step, usually, to helping you achieve your immigration dreams requires filing a family petition for a spouse, child, parent, brother, or sister.
Fiancé Visas – What if you plan to get married, but your future spouse lives in another country?
Your best course of action may be to file for a fiancé or fiancée visa. This enables you to bring your future spouse to the U.S. as long as you plan to get married within 90 days of his or her entry.

Green Cards And Citizenship – There are several types of problems you might encounter on the journey to adjusting your status to lawful permanent resident.
Here’s an issue which confuses some immigrants when they apply for green card status.
AFFIDAVITS OF SUPPORT
Many immigrants applying for permanent residency are surprised to learn they need to submit an Affidavit of Support, before they are approved for a green card.
Although the forms look simple, there are technicalities you should know before filing your green card application.
What Is An Affidavit of Support?
Essentially, the Affidavit of Support is a legal contract between an immigrant’s petitioner and the U.S. Government.
How Much Does The Sponsor Have To Make?
The requirement is 125% of the official U.S. poverty level.
What If The Petitioner Does Not Make Enough Money?
If the petitioner does not make enough income to qualify as a sponsor, the green card applicant may find a joint sponsor.

VICTORVILLE IMMIGRATION QUESTION:
How Long Do Immigration Court Cases Take?
“My sister was picked up by immigration yesterday. They have taken her to the Adelanto Detention Center. When I talked to friends, they told me that her case could take a long time. Why? Her husband is a U.S. citizen. So are their two kids.“
