Family Immigration

Family Immigration

A foreign citizen seeking to live permanently in the United States requires an immigrant visa (IV). To be eligible to apply for an IV, a foreign citizen must be sponsored by an immediate relative who is at least 21 years of age and is either a U.S. citizen or U.S. Lawful Permanent Resident (that is, a green-card holder).

Immediate Relative

These visas are based on a close family relationship with a U.S. citizen, such as a spouse, child or parent. The number of immigrants in these categories is not limited each fiscal year

Family Preference

These visas are for specific, more distant, family relationships with a U.S. citizen and some specified relationships with a Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR). The number of immigrants in these categories is limited each fiscal year.

Permanent Residents

• Spouse

• Unmarried son or daughter

Family immigration

Family immigration is also called family reunification or forming a family. Those who apply for family immigration are usually a spouse, cohabitant or child of someone who lives in Norway. Other types of family members who may apply include parents of children in Norway, individuals planning to marry someone in Norway (fiancé/fiancée), foster children and full siblings.
