While many individuals migrate to the United States so that they may have a shot at the infamous “American Dream,” several find it difficult to want to stay here without their families. The American immigration process is a notoriously difficult one, with several hoops to jump through and qualifications to meet. Unfortunately, even if an individual does everything right and meets all of the stringent eligibility requirements, they may still be denied citizenship in the United States. Because of this, families either spend their entire lives separated by landmass and ocean, or the family member that moved here chooses to return to their homeland.

Fortunately, the United States government understands the need for a close and supportive family unit. Because of this, they allow U.S. citizens to petition for the citizenship of immediate family members. Immediate family members include:
Unfortunately, extended family members on not on the eligibility list for family-based green card petitions. Non-eligible family members include:
However, many individuals are close with their grandparents, cousins, and other members of the extended family—some more so than they are with their immediate family members.

Mr. Jeffery and Mr. Kevin Racia were the attorneys handling a complex immigration case of mine.

Brittni did not ignore this issue — she took action and successfully…
My aunt was recently detained by ICE and sent to El Paso, Texas to the East Montana Detention Facility.

My family and I interviewed a dozen immigration attorneys around the country to help my aunt, and we decided to hire Kevin Raica, an attorney with Kriezelman Burton and Associates.…

From start to finish, Kevin was professional, organized, and extremely knowledgeable about immigration law. He made sure every document was prepared correctly and took the time to explain each step clearly. Anytime I had questions, he responded promptly and made…
