Permanent residency is a conditional status that requires adherence to certain residency rules and can lead to deportation if conditions are not met. Citizenship, once granted, is typically irrevocable and offers more freedoms, including the right to vote.
Who can apply for permanent residency in the United States?
Eligibility can arise through various avenues such as employment, family sponsorship, humanitarian programs, or the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, also known as the green card lottery.
What are the options for obtaining a green card in New Jersey?
The steps vary depending on your individual circumstances and the basis of your application. Legal guidance is crucial to navigate this process effectively.
