Rumbo A Su Tarjeta Verde

As the current administration threatens to reduce legal immigration options for people living in the US, it’s increasingly important that families have access to information on how to remain together legally. Immigrants have options to become permanent residents and citizens if their family members are themselves citizens or residents. This process is called the Family-Based Immigration Petition. There are no existing resources explaining this complex process that impacts immigrant families nationwide.

CUP collaborated with UnLocal Inc. and designer Tanya Bhandari to create Rumbo a su tarjeta verde, a Spanish-language guide that breaks down the legal steps to becoming a US permanent resident and citizen based on a family relationship. The colorful booklet explains the process by illustrating the step-by-step path of filing a family-based petition. It also breaks down the “visa bulletin,” a complicated document that changes monthly and indicates when people can apply for residency.
