Marriage-Based Green Cards
Marriage-Based Green Cards in Massachusetts
A marriage-based green card allows the spouse of a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident to live and work in the United States. Careful preparation keeps the process on track.
Overview
Understanding your case
Marriage-based green card cases involve proving a bona fide marriage and the petitioner's status, completing forms, attending an interview, and meeting admissibility requirements. Adjustment of status applies to applicants inside the United States, while consular processing applies to applicants abroad.
Cestos Law PLLC guides families through each step, prepares the supporting documentation, and advocates for a smooth process from petition to approval.
