An Introduction to U.S. Immigration Law
United States immigration law remains in constant flux. This is both a source of confidence and of worry to hopefully immigrants, to green card holders, and to anyone unsure of his or her immigration status, either inside the U.S. or out. While “comprehensive immigration reform” remains a high priority for most federal politicians, when this will come or what shape it will take is anyone’s guess. For now, there are many paths to immigration or travel in the U.S. These are short and long, straight and zig-zagging, and all marked with lettered and numbered sign-posts, confusing even to experts.
Most visitors to the U.S. come on some form of visa. The first distinction you might make is between immigrant visas and non-immigrant visas. Officially, a person would seek an immigrant visa when intending to make the U.S. his or her permanent home, and a non-immigrant visa when intending to travel or work in the U.S. and maintain a permanent home elsewhere. However, both types of visas could lead to citizenship or at least Lawful Permanent Residency.

You will see that there are dozens of types of visas. There are still other ways to get to the U.S. – and stay here for as long as you’d like – beyond visas. When faced with so many paths (and so many signposts), you’ll want to know which one is best for your aims and your circumstances. It would be nice to talk to someone who’d personally traveled down all those paths – filled out every possible form and tested every possible option. No one in the world fits this bill, of course: once you’re a U.S. citizen, you have that status for life, and would never need to take a second trip to the same (legal) destination.
The closest you can get to that kind of counsel would be to talk with an experienced immigration attorney. If you can find an attorney who knows all the forms and options, who’s tested creative paths to citizenship, who keeps on top of changes to immigration law and policy, and who’s advised hundreds of immigrants on their way to visas, green cards, work permits, and naturalization, you’ll have a much better chance at getting where you want to go. With a trustworthy attorney you’ll have a better chance at avoiding some hurdles, clearing others with ease, keeping down costs, and keeping your family together. After you educate yourself about U.S. immigration generally, talk to an attorney who can help plot out a course for you based on your aspirations and on the particulars of your situation.
