Our team also works with clients whose cases cross borders, and we can conduct intake in English and Spanish.

Mr. Sris is a former prosecutor. He founded the Law Offices Of SRIS, P.C. in 1997 and has practiced continuously ever since. He is admitted in five U.S. jurisdictions — Virginia, Maryland, the District of Columbia, New Jersey, and New York.

Frequently asked questions

Answers before your first call

How long does it take to sponsor a spouse for a green card?+

Timelines depend on whether the case proceeds by consular processing or adjustment of status, which USCIS service center and consulate are involved, and the facts of the case. Current published processing times vary widely. We can give you an estimate based on the current figures when we review your case.

What are the financial requirements to sponsor a relative?+

The sponsor generally files an Affidavit of Support (Form I-864) and must show income at or above 125% of the federal poverty guidelines for their household size. If income is insufficient, assets or a qualified joint sponsor may be used.

Can a U.S. citizen petition for a sibling?+

A U.S. citizen who is at least 21 may petition for a sibling. This is the F4 preference category, which has annual visa limits and long waiting periods that vary by country.

We met online — can we still file a K-1 fiancé(e) petition?+

Generally the couple must have met in person within the two years before filing, subject to narrow exceptions. Evidence of the in-person meeting and the ongoing relationship is required.

Do you handle cases outside your admitted states?+

Because immigration law is federal, we assist clients throughout the United States with federal immigration matters before USCIS and the immigration courts. State-law matters are handled within our admitted jurisdictions.

Your immigration matter deserves careful preparation.
