This week on Hablando con Carolina, Carolina Antonini, co-founder of Antonini & Cohen Immigration Law Group, dives into an important topic: the various immigration options available to members of the queer community. 🏳️🌈
U.S. immigration benefits are available to all individuals, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, provided they meet the eligibility requirements for a specific benefit. Carolina highlights several pathways under U.S. immigration law that can support queer individuals and their families:
K-1 Fiancé Visa: For those planning to marry a U.S. citizen, this visa allows entry into the United States to begin their new chapter together.
Marriage-Based Green Card: Same-sex marriages are recognized under U.S. immigration law, allowing foreign nationals to apply for permanent residency through their spouse.
Asylum: For queer individuals facing persecution in their home countries due to sexual orientation or gender identity, asylum may offer a life-saving path to safety.
Tune in to the full episode now to hear Carolina explain how these benefits work and what steps you can take to explore your options.
