Frequently Asked Questions
A “Green Card” is the official document that proves you are a lawful permanent resident (LPR) in the United States. It gives you the right to live and work permanently in the U.S.
You may qualify through different employment-based or investor-based categories, including:
- Priority workers with extraordinary ability / executives / managers (EB-1).
- Professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability (EB-2).
- Professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability who can self-petition if their work benefits the U.S. (EB-2 NIW).
- Skilled workers, professionals or other workers (EB-3).
- Immigrant investors who make a qualifying investment and create or preserve jobs in the U.S. (EB-5).
Yes, in some categories. For example, under EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver), qualified professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability whose work benefits the United States can self-petition without employer sponsorship.
If you apply from outside the U.S., you go through a consular process. That involves selecting the correct immigrant visa category, submitting required paperwork, attending a consular interview, and, if approved, entering the U.S. and receiving your Green Card or immigrant visa status.
As a Green Card holder, you can live and work permanently in the United States. You may also be eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship.
Processing times vary depending on the category (EB-1, EB-2, EB-3, EB-5), USCIS workload, priority dates, and whether the case requires labor certification. Some categories, like EB-1 or EB-5, can be faster, while others may take longer due to visa backlogs.
No. PERM is required for most EB-2 and EB-3 petitions but not for EB-1A (Extraordinary Ability), EB-1C (Multinational Manager/Executive), EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver), or EB-5 (Investor). These categories allow faster processing because they do not require an employer to test the labor market.
Yes. A spouse and unmarried children under 21 years old may obtain derivative permanent residency based on the principal applicant’s approved immigrant petition, allowing them to live, study, and work in the U.S.
Once granted, you become a lawful permanent resident. You must maintain your residency (avoid long absences outside the U.S., file taxes, and comply with U.S. laws). After meeting residency requirements (typically 5 years), you may be eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship.
