Frequently Asked Questions

Processing times vary significantly by category. Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens (spouses, minor children, parents) typically process within 6-12 months. Employment-based categories (EB-1 through EB-5) range from 1-3+ years depending on country of origin and visa availability. Family preference categories can take 2-20+ years due to visa backlogs.

EB-1 is for priority workers with extraordinary ability, outstanding researchers, or multinational executives—no labor certification needed. EB-2 requires an advanced degree (Master's+) or exceptional ability; the National Interest Waiver (NIW) option skips labor certification. EB-3 covers skilled workers with 2+ years experience and professionals with bachelor's degrees—requires PERM labor certification.

Yes, if you have a pending Adjustment of Status (Form I-485), you can apply for an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) using Form I-765. Once approved, the EAD allows you to work for any U.S. employer while awaiting your Green Card decision. Processing typically takes 3-6 months.

PERM (Program Electronic Review Management) is a process where employers must prove they couldn't find qualified U.S. workers for a position before sponsoring a foreign worker for a Green Card. It involves advertising the job and demonstrating recruitment efforts. Required for most EB-2 and all EB-3 petitions, but not for EB-1, EB-2 NIW, or EB-5 categories.

The DV Lottery makes 50,000 Green Cards available annually to people from countries with low U.S. immigration rates. Registration is free and occurs once per year (typically October-November). Winners are randomly selected and announced in May. You must have at least a high school diploma or 2 years of qualifying work experience to be eligible.

Yes, Green Cards can be revoked for several reasons: abandoning permanent resident status (staying outside the U.S. for extended periods), committing certain crimes, immigration fraud, or failing to remove conditions on conditional residency. Maintaining your status requires primarily residing in the U.S. and filing taxes as a resident.
