Immigration green card
Immigration green card
Having an immigration Green Card, allows the cardholder to stay and work permanently in the United States of America. In order to obtain an immigration Green Card, one must not only file the pertinent forms, but also pay all required fees. Of course if someone has never applied for an immigration Green Card, they probably have no idea that, besides completing all forms and paying fees, one must also have an official background check, medical exam by an immigration authorized civil surgeon, fingerprints must also be done, and of course pictures taken, such as the ones taken for a passport. Most of the requirements that have to be met to obtain an immigration Green Card, such as the physical and background check must be done by an official, and approved by immigration professional. It is always best to get an official listing of pre-approved places and professionals before wasting money in places on documents that immigration may not accept as official. Some, or all fees charged to obtain an immigration Green Card may be waived. To do so, one must meet all eligibility requirements and procedures. Anyone who has been privileged enough to be awarded an immigration Green Card, should by law, carry it with them at all times. Failure to do so will constitute a misdemeanor, which is punishable by law. The permanent Resident Card is legally known as form I-551 and the renewal form is the I-90. By law, the immigration Green Card should be renewed every ten years. If someone is out of the country and his or her card has expired prior to re-entry, then before filing out a Green Card renewal form or even attempting to re-enter the country, one must first contact a port of entry, American consulate or USCIS office. If your immigration Green Card expires within the next six months or during the six months of re-entry, then Green Card renewal form should be filed immediately upon returning to the United States. There is always a chance that a renewal for the immigration Green Card may be denied and if so, it is always advisable that one obtains legal representation immediately. However, if the circumstances or situation that were the cause of denial have changed, one always has the option to file a motion to re-open or reconsider. This would also apply if the denial was based on an incorrect application, immigration laws and or policies. Detailed information and or documents must be provided by applicant with their motion to re-open or reconsider. It is however extremely important to point out that negative decisions cannot be appealed.
