What is I-130 From?

The I-130 form is an immigration form used by U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents to petition for certain foreign relatives to come to the United States. It is a petition for an alien relative and is used to establish the existence of a qualifying family relationship for immigration purposes. The form is filed with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). If the petition is approved, it allows the relative to apply for a visa to come to the United States or, if the relative is already in the United States, to apply for a green card.
