FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an immigrant visa and a nonimmigrant visa?

An immigrant visa is generally intended for someone seeking to live permanently in the United States, while a nonimmigrant visa is generally intended for temporary travel or stays for purposes such as visiting, studying, or working.

Can I get a green card through a family member?

Certain family relationships may provide a pathway toward permanent residence. The process and eligibility requirements depend on the relationship, the immigration circumstances of the individuals involved, and other factors.

What is adjustment of status?

Adjustment of status is a process that may allow an eligible individual already in the United States to apply for lawful permanent resident status without leaving the country.

How does the U.S. citizenship process work?

Eligible lawful permanent residents may be able to apply for U.S. citizenship through the naturalization process. This generally includes submitting an application, completing required steps, and attending a naturalization interview.

What should I do if I am facing deportation or removal proceedings?

If you are facing removal proceedings, it is important to understand your legal options and the deadlines that may apply to your case. An immigration attorney can review your circumstances and explain potential forms of relief or defense.
