Protecting Your Immigration Rights in Marriage
Establishing the right to reside in the United States or to achieve permanent residency status through marriage can be complex. For many couples, this can be a stressful time and can even result in the threat of removal if your case is not handled properly from the outset. Attorney Sarah Vitelli is an experienced marriage and adjustment of status attorney in Boston, Massachusetts, working exclusively on immigration issues on behalf of her clients seeking residency, a fiancé(e) visa or to become a naturalized citizen in the United States after marriage.
Permanent Residency Card After Marriage
Many legal and illegal immigrants know that if they marry a U.S. citizen, they are able to obtain permanent residency. While this can be a tempting way to quickly obtain citizenship, it makes the process very difficult for others who are in valid, legal and authentic relationships. If you are already married, are a U.S. citizen considering marrying an immigrant, or a legal or illegal immigrant seeking marriage to a U.S. citizen, it is critical to know your rights and work with an experienced lawyer throughout the process. Attorney Vitelli is fully prepared to:
-
- Review documentation and help you understand appropriate legwork that needs to be completed before filing a petition
- Fill out forms, obtain documentation and prepare your case for success
- Help you file appropriate affidavits along with your petition
- Represent you during your adjustment of status interview and prepare you for interview questions.
- Intervene after a denial or help you if you have filed on your own and received a request for evidence
Proving the Authenticity of Your Marriage and Relationship
The main issue for couples is often proving that the marriage was not meant for immigration purposes. If you are being accused of fraud or you have had difficulty in proving the authenticity of the marriage, it is important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible. Attorney Vitelli will take the time to review the evidence in your case, provide you with important information, collect relevant documentation and aggressively defend your position to ensure your case is approved.
