WHAT IS A GREEN CARD?


A green card grants lawful permanent residence in the United States. It allows you to live and work permanently, travel freely, and eventually apply for U.S. citizenship if eligible.

There are multiple paths to a green card, including:

  • Family sponsorship (spouse, parent, child, or sibling)
  • Marriage to a U.S. citizen
  • Employment-based sponsorship
  • Asylum or refugee status
  • Adjustment of status from within the U.S.
  • Special immigrant categories

Navigating immigration law is complex—but with the right green card lawyer, you don’t have to do it alone.
