Frequently Asked Questions
What is the process for applying for a U.S. Green Card?
The process for applying for a U.S. Green Card typically involves determining your eligibility, submitting the appropriate application (Form I-485 or consular processing), attending a biometrics appointment, and possibly an interview. Once approved, you’ll receive your Green Card.
How long does it take to get a work permit under DACA?
The process to get a work permit under DACA typically takes around 3 to 6 months, depending on USCIS processing times and individual circumstances.
Can I apply for U.S. Citizenship if I have a criminal record?
Having a criminal record doesn't automatically disqualify you from applying for U.S. Citizenship, but certain offenses may affect your eligibility. It's important to consult with an immigration attorney to evaluate your specific situation.
How can I check the status of my immigration application?
You can check the status of your immigration application by visiting the USCIS website and using their online case status tool. You'll need your receipt number, which is provided when your application is submitted.
What is the difference between a Green Card and U.S. Citizenship?
A Green Card grants permanent residency, allowing you to live and work in the U.S. U.S. Citizenship offers full rights, including voting and the ability to obtain a U.S. passport.
Can I travel outside the U.S. while my immigration application is pending?
It depends on your status and the type of application. Traveling without proper authorization may lead to delays or denial, so it’s best to consult with an immigration attorney before traveling.
