LGBTQ+ IMMIGRATION

As advocates for equality and justice, we understand the unique challenges faced by same-sex couples in the immigration process. Whether you are seeking to sponsor your partner for a visa or green card, or if you're an LGBTQ+ individual navigating immigration on your own, our team of experienced immigration attorneys is here to provide guidance and support every step of the way.

Understanding Same-Sex Immigration:

In recent years, significant progress has been made in recognizing the rights of same-sex couples in immigration law. Following the landmark Supreme Court decision in United States v. Windsor in 2013 and the Obergefell v. Hodges decision in 2015, same-sex couples are now entitled to the same immigration benefits as opposite-sex couples.

Key Considerations:

• Marriage Equality: Same-sex couples who are legally married are eligible to apply for family-based immigration benefits just like opposite-sex couples.
• Filing Petitions: U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents can sponsor their same-sex spouses for immigrant visas or green cards through the same process as opposite-sex spouses.
• Documentation: When filing immigration petitions, same-sex couples may need to provide evidence of their relationship, such as marriage certificates, joint financial documents, and proof of cohabitation.

Challenges and Solutions:

Despite the progress made, same-sex couples may still face challenges in the immigration process, particularly in countries where LGBTQ+ rights are not recognized or where same-sex marriage is not legal.
