K-4 nonimmigrant visas are not as commonly used as they once were. However, there might still be some circumstances where they are the best option for you and your family. These family-based visas are meant to reduce the time your family is separated while waiting for the approval of other petitions.
An Orlando family immigration lawyer from Bogin, Munns & Munns will help you weigh your options to reunite your family as quickly as possible. Often, this includes filing petitions and gathering supporting documents for you. Contact us today for a free consultation.
Let Our Orlando Immigration Lawyer Assess Your Need for a K-4 Family-Based Visa
At Bogin, Munns & Munns, our Orlando immigration lawyers understand how difficult it is for your family to remain apart when one party is a U.S. citizen, and their spouse and children are waiting for approval to move to the United States. This is why lawmakers created the K-3 and K-4 nonimmigrant visas.
The K-3 is for the spouse of a U.S. citizen who has applied for an immigrant visa. The K-4 is for any unmarried children of a K-3 visa holder.
According to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the K-3 nonimmigrant visa and K-4 nonimmigrant visa prevent a long-term separation of the family because of the lag in processing Form I-130 for foreign spouses of citizens. However, since the creation of these new visas, the time required to process a Form I-130 has been greatly reduced, so K-3 and K-4 visas are rarely issued today.
Do I Need a K-4 Family-Based Visa?
When necessary, a K-4 family-based visa might be possible for:
- The child of a K-3 visa applicant; and,
- Is under 21; and,
- Who is unmarried.
A good way to learn if your children need to apply for a K-4 nonimmigrant visa or if there are better options is to speak with our team in Orlando. We can assess your case and determine if petitioning for a K-4 family-based visa is necessary in your case. We can file any necessary petitions on your behalf and help with any issues you encounter.
