Immediate Relative & Family Preference Immigrant Visas

United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) categorizes immigrant visas into two groups. The first group is immediate relative immigrant visas. These visas are given to close family members of U.S. citizens, such as spouses, unmarried children under 21, adopted orphans, and parents who are at least 21 years of age. The second group is family preference immigrant visas.

Family members in the second group include:

• Unmarried daughters and sons, and their minor children, of U.S. citizens
• Immediate family members of lawful permanent residents
• Married daughters and sons, and their minor children, of U.S. citizens
• Sisters and brothers, and their spouses and minor children, of U.S. citizens
