Bring Your Family
Home to America

Expert guidance through every step of family-based immigration – from petition to green card. Attorney Calvin Pierre is a proud son of Haitian immigrants who understands exactly what family separation feels like.

Your Family Deserves to Be Together

Being separated from your family is one of the hardest challenges anyone can face. Whether you’re waiting to bring your spouse, children, parents, or siblings to the United States, the immigration process can feel overwhelming and confusing. At Calvin Pierre Law, we specialize in helping families navigate the complex path to reunification with compassion, expertise, and a deep understanding of what’s at stake.

Attorney Calvin Pierre, a proud son of Haitian immigrants, didn’t just study immigration law — he lived it. He understands the sleepless nights, the missed birthdays, the weddings celebrated over video calls. That’s why our approach goes beyond paperwork. We treat your family’s case with the same urgency and care we would want for our own loved ones.

Family-based immigration is one of the most common pathways to legal permanent residence (green card) in the United States, but it’s also one of the most complicated. Processing times can stretch for months or even years, and a single mistake on your application can lead to devastating delays or denials. That’s where we come in.

Our team has successfully reunited hundreds of families from across the Caribbean, Latin America, Africa, and beyond. We communicate with you in the language you’re most comfortable with — English, Spanish, or Haitian Creole — and we’re available when you need us most, primarily through WhatsApp where you can reach us quickly with questions or concerns.

Why Choose Calvin Pierre Law?

Your Path to Family Reunification: Step by Step

Every family’s immigration journey is unique, but the process follows a clear path. Understanding what to expect helps reduce anxiety and allows you to prepare properly. Here’s how we guide families from the initial petition through to green card approval.
Initial Consultation & Case Evaluation (1 Week)

We meet with you (in person or virtually) to understand your family situation, review your relationship evidence, and determine the best immigration pathway. We assess potential challenges early and create a customized strategy

Your Role:

Bring or share basic documents (birth certificates, marriage certificates, proof of relationship)

Our Role:

Legal analysis, eligibility assessment, timeline projection
We prepare and file the Form I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative) with USCIS. This officially establishes the family relationship and starts your case in the immigration system.

Your Role:

Provide required documents and evidence of relationship

Our Role:

Complete all forms, organize evidence, file with USCIS, obtain receipt confirmation

Documents Typically Needed:

  • Proof of petitioner’s US citizenship or permanent residence
  • Birth certificates, marriage certificates
  • Proof of relationship (photos, correspondence, financial support records)
  • Divorce/death certificates if applicable
We monitor your case status and respond immediately to any Requests for Evidence (RFE). Once approved, your case moves to the National Visa Center (NVC) for consular processing, or proceeds to adjustment of status if your relative is in the US.

Your Role:

Respond quickly if we request additional documents

Our Role:

Track case status, handle RFEs, communicate with USCIS
(For relatives outside the US) The NVC collects additional forms, civil documents, and fees. We prepare the DS-260 application and compile your complete case package.

Your Role:

Gather civil documents (police certificates, medical exams)

Our Role:

Track case status, handle RFEs, communicate with USCIS

Important Note About Timelines:

Processing times fluctuate based on USCIS workload, case complexity, and individual circumstances. We provide updated timeline estimates throughout your case and keep you informed of any changes. These timelines are based on current averages as of February 2026.

Obstacles We Help You Overcome

Family immigration isn’t always straightforward. Many families face complications that can delay or derail their cases. We’ve seen it all — and we know how to solve it.

Long Processing Times & Visa Backlogs

The Problem:
Some family visa categories have waiting periods of 5, 10, or even 15+ years depending on your relationship and country of origin. The uncertainty is agonizing, and families worry they'll never be together.

Our Solution:
We help you understand realistic timelines from day one — no false promises. We monitor visa bulletin updates and explore all available options to potentially reduce wait times, including upgrading petition categories when circumstances change (like when a petitioner becomes a US citizen). While you wait, we actively explore alternative pathways including Humanitarian Parole, other visa categories, and strategic timing of naturalization.

Requests for Evidence (RFE) from USCIS

The Problem:
USCIS often issues RFEs requesting additional proof of your relationship, financial support, or other documentation. These requests can be confusing, and responding incorrectly can lead to denial.

Our Solution:
We have extensive experience responding to RFEs. We know exactly what USCIS is looking for and how to present evidence persuasively. Our response packages are comprehensive, well-organized, and designed to overcome USCIS concerns completely. Our RFE approval rate is over 95%.

Proving "Bona Fide" Relationships

The Problem:
USCIS and consular officers are trained to detect marriage fraud and fraudulent family relationships. Even genuine families sometimes struggle to document their relationship in ways that satisfy immigration authorities — especially if you've been separated by distance, have cultural differences in how you communicate, or lack traditional evidence.

Our Solution:
We guide you in collecting and presenting the right evidence from the very beginning. This includes photos, correspondence, financial records, affidavits from family and friends, and more. For marriage-based cases, we prepare couples for intensive interview questions designed to test the authenticity of their relationship. Our preparation is so thorough that officers often approve cases on the spot.

Prior Immigration Violations or Unlawful Presence

The Problem:
If your relative has overstayed a visa, entered the US without inspection, or has other immigration violations in their history, they may be inadmissible or face 3-year or 10-year bars from reentering the US.

Our Solution:
We analyze your relative's complete immigration history and determine if waivers are available. Many families don't realize that provisional unlawful presence waivers (I-601A) allow certain relatives to apply for forgiveness before leaving the US for their consular interview, dramatically reducing separation time. We've successfully obtained hundreds of waivers for clients with complicated histories.

Consular Processing Delays & Administrative Processing

The Problem:
Even after USCIS approves your petition, consular interviews can be delayed by months due to backlogs, security clearances ("administrative processing"), or issues at specific embassies. Some consulates are notoriously slow or difficult.

Our Solution:
We have established relationships with consular posts and know how to follow up effectively when cases are stuck in administrative processing. We also prepare applicants to present their cases clearly at interviews, reducing the likelihood of being placed into lengthy security reviews. When delays are unavoidable, we explore congressional inquiry options and other escalation paths.

Don't let these obstacles stop your family from being together. We've overcome them hundreds of times — we can do it for you too.
