Through family petition you must have a close relative to file an application on your behalf. Close relatives include spouses, parents, children older than 21, brother and sisters. How to obtain a permanent residency status. There are two common ways to obtain your permanent residency in the United States: Ones is through family petition, second is through employment. Through family petition you must have a close relative to file an application on your behalf. Close relatives include spouses, parents, children older than 21, brother and sisters. The difference in filing applications through any of these family relations is the time that takes for a visa to be available. If you a petition through an spouse or through one your US citizen children you will become permanent resident in a relatively short time, however, if you file a petition through a sibling or permanent resident spouse your waiting time for a visa is more than a couple of years. Through employment, you must have a company sponsoring your applications; the job must required training and two year of experience, or higher education degree. The company must have at least three years of being established and it must have employees on payroll and be in compliance with labor regulations and federal tax regulations. Recent changes in the processing system have reduced the waiting time for this type of application.
Relative Petitions: If your are a permanent resident you can petition your spouse and children under 21 in one single petition, however if your children are going to be 21 within the next four years we recommend that file an individual petition for each child.
You can also petition your children over 21 if they are single. If your are a United States Citizen you can petition your spouse and children under or older than 21, single or married, plus you can petition your parent and your brothers and sisters even if they are single or married. However as a US Citizen you need to file individual petitions for each individual that you need to sponsor for the permanent residency.
