Visas
To enter the United States, you have to obtain a visa. A visa is issued by the United States government. Whether you’re flying, sailing on a cruise, or walking on foot, every immigrant has to present a visa to be allowed into the country legally.
There are two types of visas: immigrant visas and nonimmigrant visas. Immigrant visas are for foreign citizens who intend to move to the U.S. and reside in the country permanently. Nonimmigrant visas allow foreign citizens to visit the U.S. temporarily.
The process of obtaining a visa can seem daunting. The application process can be confusing and challenging. But an experienced immigration attorney can help make sure you submit a strong application, help you navigate the process, and help address any related issues that may arise while you’re waiting for your application to be approved.
Green Cards
There are two different types of green cards, and the type you require will depend on your needs. They are family-based green cards and employment-based green cards. Each type of green card is further categorized by preferences based on what you’re in the country for (employment-based) and your familial relationships (family-based).
One of the first documents that many immigrants may need to seek upon their arrival to the United States is a green card. A green card allows an immigrant to reside in the United States. You must have an immigrant visa before you can be approved for a green card.
Citizenship
After obtaining a green card, you can apply to be granted citizenship to the United States. The challenging process of applying for citizenship can take some time and can be expensive, but successfully becoming a U.S. citizen is a rewarding, momentous occasion.
You’ll have to complete an application for citizenship as well as provide any required supporting documentation. In addition, you’ll have to provide fingerprints and complete an interview with a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) officer.
You must submit an accurate application for citizenship. Errors on your application can extend the amount of time it takes to process the application, but these errors could also compromise any approval of your citizenship application. This could even compromise your current green card status.
An experienced immigration lawyer at the Law Office of William Jang, PLLC can help make sure you submit a proper and complete application for citizenship and can help make sure you’re prepared for your USCIS appointment and interview.
