Frequently Asked Questions - Immigration
How long does it take to get a green card?
Processing times vary widely based on the type of application, your country of origin, and whether you’re adjusting status in the U.S. or processing through a consulate. Family-based cases may take anywhere from several months to several years.
What happens if I overstay my visa?
Overstaying can trigger bars to re-entry or affect future applications. Some individuals may still be eligible for waivers or relief depending on their circumstances.
Do I need an immigration lawyer, or can I file on my own?
While some forms can be filed without counsel, the stakes are high and mistakes can lead to delays, denials, or removal. Having an experienced immigration attorney significantly improves your chance of success.
Can I work in the U.S. while my application is pending?
Certain applicants may apply for work authorization while awaiting a decision. This depends on the type of application and eligibility.
I have a criminal record. Can I still apply for immigration benefits?
It depends on the nature of the conviction. Some crimes make an applicant inadmissible or removable. A waiver or post-conviction relief may be required.
How do I become a U.S. citizen?
Most applicants must be permanent residents for at least 5 years (or 3 years if married to a U.S. citizen), show good moral character, pass an English and civics test, and meet physical presence requirements.
