How are Green Cards through Lottery selected?
A computer algorithm randomly selects the winners of the Diversity Visa lottery, with a certain number of visas allocated to each region of the world and no country obtains more than 7% of the available Diversity Visas throughout the year.
Green Card Travel Advantages!
Compared to having a temporary visa or a student visa, one of the best benefits of having a Green Card is that it makes traveling in and out of the United States so much easier.
Keep in mind, all Green Card holders are required to be admitted by US immigration services because the card is a symbol of their permanent legal status in the country and if you do not renew it before it expires you will not be able to travel.
Each type of Green Card can differ from one another in terms of the application process, but it usually goes like this:
1. A petitioner must file an immigrant petition for you (in some cases, you can file one for yourself);
2. You file a Green Card application with USCIS or a visa application with the U.S. Department of State, only after USCIS approves your immigrant petition;
3. You provide your fingerprints, photos and signature at the biometrics appointment;
4. You collect all the required documents and prepare for the interview and
5. You attend the interview!
What is the EB-5 Visa?
The EB-5 Visa is an Immigrant Investor Permanent Residence or Green Card which offers permanent residency in the U.S. for investors who spends 500,00 dollars or 1 million for unemployment areas, where they will employ 10 or more legal permanent resident employees in a US company.
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.
If you already have either a T or U non-immigrant visa, you may also be eligible to apply for a green card.
Visa interviews can be very stressful so before attending we suggest you: are on time for your interview (better if you arrive 30 minutes early), wear appropriate clothing, prepare beforehand to answer all types of questions, answer the questions in a calm and organized manner, do not panic if you get separated from your spouse and of course bring all the right documentation.
How to be qualified for a Green Card?
By being supported by a parent (including your spouse) or by your employer, you can apply for a green card (GC).
Via an EB-5 investment, through the Diversity Visa (DV) lottery or via asylum, you can also become a permanent resident.
