Who is Eligible for a Green Card?
There are different categories of eligibility for a green card. Individuals may qualify for a green card through family relationships, employment, or other special categories including victims of abuse, refugees, human trafficking and crime victims, religious workers, or international broadcasters. An experienced immigration lawyer will be able to assess your situation and determine the category that best suits your case.
How Do I Apply for a Green Card?
Generally, the green card application process involves a sponsor filing an immigrant petition on your behalf. In some cases, you may be eligible to file a petition for yourself. If the petition is approved, then you file a green card application with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services or a visa application with the U.S. Department of State. The process will vary depending on which category you are eligible under and whether you are already in the United States.
Reasons Your Green Card Application May Be Denied
If you are eligible for a green card under one of the categories, your application may still be denied. The reasons for denial, which are referred to as grounds of inadmissibility include:
- Poor health
- Criminal history
- Security threat
- Insufficient financial support
- Previous immigration violations
- Application errors
If your application for a green card is denied, you may file a notice or motion of appeal. The Nevada immigration lawyers at Janda Law can help you understand why your application was denied, and assist you in the appeals process.
