I am an Indian born, Australian Citizen on a E3 visa. Does applying for a Green Card jeopardize my chances of getting E3 visa renewed in the future? My wife is on E3D visa and has EAD. She is working now and can her employer start GC process and will that jeopardize her E3D visa renewal and/or my E3 visa renewal? What is the best bet? Applying GC on my name or her name? Both are qualified educationally and both have jobs in the U.S
Applying for a green card should not be a problem for you or your wife. I always suggest filing two independent green cards where the option is available. This provides for a safety net if the process fails for one of the spouses.
I was really glad with Mr. Khanna's knowledge and experience in immigration matters. I had 15 mins appt. which I thought will not be enough but he was able to answer all my question as well as sent me an email that I needed. He was very good to talk to and put me at ease to discuss issue in detail without making me feel that he has to rush. I will definitely recommend him to anyone who has immigration questions. -Yogesh
I am a college freshman student on an F-1 visa and am thinking about applying for green card, as I have also completed 2 years of HS in the US. Any idea how long the green card process may take and should I apply already for green card now in order to possibly get it by the time I graduate college?
The time frame for employment based green cards depends upon two things: your country of chargeability (usually the country you were born in) and the category of green card through which you apply: EB1, EB2, EB3.
I have a pen pal that is a citizen of Honduras. He would like to come to the US to visit me and our beautiful country. My question is this: if he obtains a 6 months B-2 visitors visa, then maybe half way through, he thinks he would like to move to the US and work here, could he apply for a green card during his 6 month stay. He has no family here in the US, just me, his friend.
That does not sound possible. Green cards to USA are granted based upon very limited basis. But, you should have your friend speak with a lawyer to see what options may exist.
Hi Rajiv, I just wanted to take this opportunity to complement you and your highly skilled team of lawyers on doing such a fantastic job of helping so many people out there who don't have enough understanding of US laws. You guys are not only knowledgeable but also EXTREMELY courteous and willing to help to all of us. I would specifically like to mention Leila M. and Hanna Baker, as the two individuals, I had an opportunity to talk to, and both of them were really helping and understanding. I can't thank them enough for providing the MOST accurate advice which helped me a lot and that too without expecting anything in return which makes it even more noble. Please keep up the good work.
Thanks.
It took me full 6 years to get through the green card process and had to face a lot of obstacles along way. So what, Rajiv was there at every stage of the process. Thank you for your expertise and support. Thanks to everyone on your staff, especially Suman Bhasin, Leila Leyman, and of course Diane Lomabrdo. Great team!
Thank you much. The information provided was very helpful.
