Immediate Relatives of a U.S. Citizen

"Immediate relatives" of a U.S. citizen refers to the parents, spouses, widows, and unmarried, minor (under 21 years of age) children of a U.S. citizen. Immediate relatives of a U.S. citizen can immigrate to the United States without being subject to any numerical restrictions, unlike other close family members of U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Particularly, they can apply for  permanent resident status without any waiting time. Other close family members of U.S. citizens or permanent residents are divided into several groups called "preferences". Each Preference is given a numerical quota per year to limit the number of immigrants admitted into the United States. For details regarding each preference, please see "Other close family members of U.S. citizens" and "Family members of permanent residents". For the current waiting period for each preference, please check the "Visa bulletin".
