A Family Based Green Card enables foreign family members of U.S. citizens and permanent residents to receive a Green Card and become lawful permanent residents in the US.
S. citizens can bring more distant relatives to the US than those who are permanent residents in the US. Moreover, applicants related to US citizens can receive their Green Cards and come to the US faster than family members of permanent residents.
The two categories of Family Based Green Cards are the Immediate Relatives category and the Family Preference category. Both of these groups include several visas that applicants can choose from depending on their relation to the U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
If you want to apply for one of the Family Based Green Cards, your U.S. relative, who will also be your sponsor, has to petition to USCIS on your behalf. It is not possible to self-petition for a Family Based Green Card.
