Green Card for Immediate Relatives of U.S. Citizens

You may apply for adjustment of status as an immediate relative of a U.S. Citizen if you are:

• The spouse of a U.S. citizen;
• The unmarried child under 21 years of age of a U.S. citizen; or
• The parent of a U.S. citizen (if the U.S. citizen is 21 years of age or older).

Green Card for Family Preference Immigrants

If you are not an immediate relative of a U.S. Citizen or lawful permanent resident, you may be eligible for adjustment of status based on specific family relationships.

Other family members that be eligible are given a category in order of preference:

• First preference (F1) - unmarried sons and daughters who are 21 years of age and older of a U.S. Citizen
• Second preference (F2A) - spouses, children who are unmarried (under 21 years of age) of a lawful permanent resident
• Second preference (F2B) - unmarried sons and daughters (21 years of age and older) of a lawful permanent resident
• Third preference (F3) - married sons and daughters of U.S. citizens
• Fourth preference (F4) - brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens who are 21 years of age and older

To apply for a green card under either of these categories, you must file Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status. and submit the necessary documentation and evidence required.
