Snowbirds who have US citizen children (or parents) who reside in the US can benefit most from the family-based immigration option. Since USCIS supplies an unlimited number of these visas each year, snowbirds with US citizen children (or parents) can move to the US with this visa relatively quickly as there is no wait list.
While snowbirds with US citizen siblings may also apply for a family-based visa, there is a long wait list for these types of visas, which fall into the “family preference category”.
If the family-based immigration path is not open to our snowbird clients, the investor-based path may offer a viable US immigration opportunity.
