How to Get a Green Card

About this book

AUDIENCE:
Regular people interested in obtaining a permanent right to live in the U.S. based on either a qualifying family relationship, humanitarian grounds such as asylum, or other non-employment related means. This includes people living overseas as well as undocumented immigrants in the United States. U.S citizens or green card holders wishing to sponsor a relative will also find the book helpful, as will legal assistants or even attorneys looking for a summary of the law and procedures.REASONS TO BUY THIS NEW EDITION:

  • Gets into the fine details of the relevant application processes like no other book on the market.
  • Contains whole chapters devoted to each category of green card covered (for example, green cards for parents of a U.S. citizen), so that the most relevant information is all in one place.
  • Displays useful and popular sample filled-in forms.
  • Covers numerous legal and procedural changes, including changed priorities and procedures under the Trump administration (such as the travel ban on entrants from Muslim countries), updated Poverty Guidelines amounts (affecting how much income sponsors must prove); and more.
