Green Card through Employer Petition
Orlando Immigration
Attorney, providing experienced Green
Card Through Employer Petition and
Immigration Law legal services in Orlando, and the Central Florida area.
If you want to apply for a green card
(permanent residence) based on the fact that you have a permanent
employment opportunity in the United States, or if you are an employer
that wants to sponsor someone for a green card based on permanent
employment in the United States, you must go through the following
processes.
Unless you are eligible to petition for yourself, most
employment petitions require a job offer and require that the employer
petition for the worker. Most employers petition for an employee using
Form I-140, Petition for Alien Worker. For more information on how to
petition for an employee, see the “Working in the U.S.” link to the
right.
Application Process
If You Are Living Outside the United States
you can become a permanent resident through consular
processing when living outside the United States.
Consular processing is when USCIS works with the
Department of State to issue a visa on an approved
Form I-140 petition when a visa is available. For
more information on consular processing, see the
“Consular Processing” link to the left under “Green
Card Processes & Procedures.”
If You Are Living in the United States you can become a
permanent resident through adjustment of status when living inside the
United States. Once the I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker, is
approved and a visa number is available you can apply on Form I-485,
Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, to become
a permanent resident. For more information, see the “Visa Availability &
Priority Dates” and “Adjustment of Status” links to the left under
“Green Card Processes & Procedures.”
