Application process of the Green Card?
First, you must check if you are eligible for the Green Card and then choose which process to use (consular processing or adjustment of status).
You need to go with consular processing if you aren’t physically in the United States, if you are physically present in the U.S. on a valid Visa then you must choose the adjustment of status process.
After that is settled, you need to file the I-485 Form, pay all the fees if needed and once your application gets approved by the USCIS then, you need to gather all the right documentation and other Forms and attend the interview if required!
How to get a Green Card in the US without marriage?
There are multiple ways to get a Green Card without having to marry anyone.
If you have been residing in the U.S. as an asylee or refugee for the last year, you might be able to apply for a U.S. green card.

Does a Green Card offer Job Opportunities?
Access to better career opportunities is one of the greatest benefits to Green Card holders.
If an immigrant wanted to work in the United States, they would have to be sponsored by the company for which they work for their work visa, so when it comes to Green Card holders, they are a permanent legal resident, which means they are free to work in almost every company in the United States.
They can also establish their own company and if they want to, become an entrepreneur.
