How to Get a Green Card

About this book

The ultimate green card guide

Find out about the most promising opportunities for U.S. lawful residence and how to handle the complex application procedures in How to Get a Green Card. This book has helped countless immigrants over the years—especially ones not lucky enough to have an employer sponsoring them. You'll find out how to work with U.S. officials and prepare and present the right documents at the right time to get a green card through:

• parents, siblings, or adult children

• a U.S. spouse or fiancé

• green card lotteries (diversity visa)

• political asylum or refugee status

• a US visa for crime victims, or

• another category you might qualify for.

Best of all, you'll learn how to avoid common mistakes and pitfalls that can cause major delays or ruin your chances for success.

The 16th edition covers immigration fee changes, raised income requirements for immigrants, and the latest on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA). It also includes filled-in samples of all key application forms.
