Green Cards Might Become Available for Immediate Relatives of Legal Permanent Residents As predicted, for a period of two months, spouses and minor unmarried children of U.S. Legal Permanent Residents (LPR) may become equal to relatives of the U.S. Citizens for purposes of filing of immigrant petitions, meaning that they would be allowed to apply for a green card at the time the underlying Alien Relative Petition is filed. The Visa Bulletin for July 2019, confirms this, showing the priority date for the F-2A Category as current as of March 8, 2019. If you are a green card holder, you are now able now to sponsor your spouse and children for lawful permanent resident status without waiting for an approval of Alien Relative Petition first. Also, if you are a green card holder who is thinking about getting married, this may be the perfect time to do so. For those immediate relatives of LPR, who are currently overseas and who already have approvals for Alien Relative Petitions, NVC may open cases so that they can obtain immigrant visas through the consulate. According to the Visa Bulletin for category F2A, the last time such coincidence of dates happened few years ago and it lasted for only a few months. #greencard #greencardholder #greencardlottery #greencardmarriage #permanentresident #permanentresidentcard #immidiaterelative #legalpermanentresident #immigrationusa #usimmigration #usimmigrationlawyer #legalservices #citizenship #uscitizenship #lpr #petition #va #dc #md #usa https://www.instagram.com/p/B3QoYgAhXIl/?igshid=1mizghhmrvkmj
