Green Cards - US Citizen Married Alien Living Abroad Guide

"Let’s talk about how you may qualify for a green card."

What’s A Green Card? Perhaps the most sought after visa in the US is the green card. This is because once a person has been granted green card status they become life long permanent residents of the US. Green card holders can come and go as they please, and work for whoever will employ them. They can start their own business or choose not to work at all if they can afford not to. The two things green card holders cannot do are, run for public office or vote. The green card is the last step before citizenship. In this particular outline we’ll just cover the basics to get you started.

How Can I Get My Green Card? One of the most common ways to qualify for a green card is if you have a parent or close relative who is a US citizen. However, many people each year find love and marry a US citizen. If you have an immediate family member who is a US citizen, you will probably qualify for a green card. An employer can sponsor you for a green card and this will cover your entire family.

I Don’t Have Any Close US Family: If you don’t have close enough family ties don’t worry there are plenty of other options. For example, as mentioned above, finding an employer to sponsor you can be an excellent way to get a green card. New legislation has been implemented to drastically speed up the time it takes to get applications approved. Once I’ve had the opportunity to review your online consultation I’ll be able to tell you how this exciting new development may apply to your situation.

Expertise And Know How: I would love the opportunity to help you as I help all of my clients. With US immigration it’s all about understanding and tracking the development of the all the new laws so we can give our client’s accurate up to date advice. Immigration law is constantly being updated and I really do mean constantly. Books quickly get out of date as US immigration wrestles with being the number one immigration destination in the world. We track these changes on a daily basis and apply them to our client’s cases as required. Your case will be in the best possible hands at all times.

Booking Your Consultation: By "Booking Your Consultation" I will be able to review your case professionally. My office has the resources to help you in so many ways, but until we receive your booking, we can’t even get started. This time next year you and yours could be green card holders. Now wouldn’t that be something? I’m very much looking forward to the opportunity to help you as I help all of my clients.
