Green Card Through Marriage
Immigration Help for Spouses
At Powers Immigration Law, we help couples navigate the process of marriage-based immigration so that foreign-born spouses can become lawful permanent residents of the United States. If you are a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (LPR) who has married a foreign national, your spouse may be eligible to obtain a green card through marriage—either by applying for an immigrant visa abroad or through adjustment of status in the U.S.
Marriage-Based Immigration Options
U.S. citizens and green card holders can petition for their foreign national spouses to live and work permanently in the United States. Depending on your situation, we can guide you through:
-
Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative
-
Adjustment of status for spouses already in the U.S.
-
Consular processing for spouses living abroad
-
Spouse visa options, including CR1 and IR1 visas
-
Conditional residency and removal of conditions after two years of marriage
What to Know About Proving a Bona Fide Marriage
It’s important to understand that receiving a green card through marriage is not automatic. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) closely examines these petitions to confirm that the marriage is bona fide—meaning it is genuine and not entered into solely for immigration purposes. As your immigration attorney, we help you gather and present strong evidence of a legitimate relationship to support your case.
