LANI, a dedicated nurse residing in Houston, found herself juggling multiple responsibilities between work and home. With a husband, a seven-year-old son, and a mother-in-law under her care, Lani’s days off often felt busier than workdays as she managed household chores, childcare, and caregiving duties.
In a stroke of serendipity, while watching TFC, Lani (left) stumbled upon an announcement from leading U.S. Immigration Attorney Michael J. Gurfinkel (right) that intrigued her. It highlighted the possibility of petitioning family members as household help or caregivers, offering a potentially expedited process compared to traditional family petitions. This gave Lani the idea to bring her brother, Marvin, and sister-in-law, Genalyn, from the Philippines to assist with household responsibilities.
Her brother Marvin and sister-in-law Genalyn seemed like ideal candidates for this opportunity. Aside from alleviating her own workload, Lani recognized the immense opportunity this presented for her nieces, Karen and Kyla, to pursue their education and have a better life in the United States. It is perfectly legal for family to petition other family members for an employment based green card, which is much faster than a regular family petition, and allowed Lani to live an easier life.
For individuals like Lani, this pathway offers a practical solution to balancing work and family responsibilities while providing valuable opportunities (green card) for loved ones to thrive in the U.S.
