Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is a Green Card?
A Green Card is a permanent residency authorization in the United States. It can be obtained through family relationships, job opportunities, career achievements, investments, or other immigration categories.
Who is eligible for a Green Card?
Anyone who meets the eligibility criteria can apply for a Green Card—whether through employment, investment, family sponsorship, marriage, asylum, or other qualifying grounds. The ideal pathway depends on the applicant’s individual profile.
What is the difference between EB-1, EB-2, EB-3, and EB-5 visas?
These are employment-based visas, each with specific requirements and purposes.
EB-1 is for individuals with extraordinary abilities.
EB-2 is for professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability.
EB-3 is for skilled workers, professionals, and other workers.
EB-5 is for investors who make a qualifying investment in a U.S. business.
Can I apply for a visa without a job offer?
Yes, certain categories—such as EB-1A (extraordinary ability) and EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver)—allow you to apply without a sponsor or formal job offer.
How long does it take to get a Green Card?
Processing times vary depending on the visa category, the applicant’s nationality, and the workload of USCIS. On average, it can take between 12 to 36 months. Cases with waiting lists—such as EB-3 for certain nationalities—may take longer.
Can I include my family in the process?
Yes. Most immigration visas allow your spouse and unmarried children under the age of 21 to also receive a Green Card.
Can I go through the immigration process while living outside the U.S.?
Yes. The process can be done through consular processing, with interviews conducted at the U.S. consulate in your home country. In some cases, it is also possible to adjust your status while legally residing in the U.S.
What are the risks of going through the immigration process without legal guidance?
Mistakes in forms, lack of evidence, or improper documentation can result in visa denial, delays, or even future restrictions. Having a specialized immigration attorney significantly increases your chances of success.
What is labor certification (PERM)?
It is a required step for certain employment-based visas (such as EB-2 and EB-3), in which the employer must prove that there are no qualified U.S. workers available for the position.
How much does an immigration visa process cost?
Costs vary depending on the visa type, government fees, attorney fees, and case complexity. A free initial evaluation helps provide a personalized cost estimate.
Can Alfa Alexandre Law Firm assist clients from anywhere?
