Green Card – Top 3 Ways of Getting one - Part 2

Los Angeles -- Free-Press-Release.com-- Nov 3, 2010 -- Green card is an ongoing residency certificate that enables you to live in the states and is obtainable by various ways. If you have a green card you can live, work and study in America permanently. Here is information on the top 3 ways of getting a Green card :

1. Being sponsored by a family member
2. Entering the Green Card Lottery or DV Lottery
3. Being sponsored by an employer

3. Sponsorship by an employer – Being sponsored by an employer is by far the most complicated process of all of the three that are listed here. There are three steps within this type of green card application process, the Labor Certification Application, the Immigration Petition & the Adjustment of Status. Completing all parts of the application process can take the applicant up to two years, depending on where in the US it is being processed. However, you can actually start to work after the first two steps have been successfully completed.

Many green cards are awarded to people with refugee or asylum seeking status. Each process is different and will be affected if you already reside in the US . When entering the United States without a green card, non-US citizens must arrange, prior to the trip, for a temporary visa or a visa waiver. Next they will need to apply for a green card, in order to have permanent resident status. There are only a few differences between green card holders and an American citizen, most importantly they are allowed to vote and that they receive certain government benefits.
