The Green Card Process

Applying for a Green Card involves several steps that can vary depending on your eligibility category and whether you are applying from inside the U.S. or abroad. The process may include:

1. Adjustment of Status (for applicants inside the U.S.)
2. Consular Processing (for applicants outside the U.S.)
3. Filing petitions and applications with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
4. Attending biometrics appointments and interviews
5. Providing supporting evidence to prove your green card eligibility

Having a green card allows you to travel in and out of the United States, apply for Citizenship after five (5) years of having a green card, access reduced costs for college tuition, and tap into a wider range of employment and career opportunities. The application process can be lengthy and difficult without assistance from an experienced green card attorney. At Arias and Pereira, PLLC, we help our clients navigate the application and interview process and compile evidence to prove their green card eligibility.

 At risk of losing your Green Card or Lawful Permanent Resident status?

Although having a green card allows for permanent residency in the U.S., there are ways you can lose your green card or lawful permanent resident (LPR status): 

1. Criminal convictions of a crime involving moral turpitude committed within five (5) years after the date of U.S. admission, or an aggravated felony, may expose you to deportation consequences and the loss of your green card. It is important to note that not all criminal convictions will cause an individual to lose permanent resident status.
2. Abandoning your residency by living outside of the United States for an extended period of time can risk the loss of your green card.
3. Any practice of fraud or willful misrepresentation to obtain immigration benefits can potentially result in the loss of permanent resident status.
4. Voluntarily surrendering your green card by filing Form I-407 will result in the loss of permanent resident status.
