Green Card (Permanent Residency) Services

A Green Card (also known as lawful permanent residency) allows noncitizens to live and work in the United States on a permanent basis. Whether you are applying through family sponsorship, employment, humanitarian protection, or another pathway, obtaining a Green Card is a complex but life-changing process. KW Immigration Law PC offers comprehensive support tailored to each client’s unique case and immigration goals.

Common Paths to a Green Card:

• Family-Based: Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents
• Employment-Based: Workers with specific skills, professional experience, or employer sponsorship
• Diversity Lottery: Citizens of countries with historically low U.S. immigration rates
• Humanitarian-Based: Refugees, asylees, T visa or U visa holders, and VAWA applicants

Our Green Card Legal Services Include:

• Assessing your eligibility based on immigration category and background
• Preparing and filing Form I-485 (Adjustment of Status) or supporting consular processing
• Coordinating with U.S. employers or family sponsors for I-130 or I-140 petitions
• Handling Requests for Evidence (RFEs), interview preparation, and legal representation
• Advising on travel, work authorization, and future naturalization options

Important Considerations:

• Green Card eligibility and processing times vary by category, country of origin, and visa availability
• Applicants must generally undergo medical exams, background checks, and interviews
• Grounds of inadmissibility (e.g., past immigration violations or criminal history) may require waivers
• Permanent residents must maintain status through continuous residence and avoid long absences from the U.S.

Tips for a Strong Green Card Application:

• Begin the process as early as possible to address delays and collect required documentation
• Stay informed about visa bulletin updates and priority dates if applying through preference categories
• Keep records organized, consistent, and current throughout the process
• Work with an experienced attorney to manage petitions, consular interviews, and USCIS interactions
