Consular Process
The Consular Process is the procedure by which a citizen or legal resident of the United States applies for permanent residence for a family member. The case is handled before immigration agencies and concludes with an interview at an Embassy or Consulate of the United States outside the country. This process allows you to assess the beneficiary’s eligibility and, if approved, grant permanent residence to legally enter the United States.
