The United States green card, officially known as a Permanent Resident Card, is a document issued by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to foreign nationals who have been granted the right to live and work permanently in the United States. The process of applying for a green card can be complex and time-consuming, but it is an essential step for those who wish to establish a permanent life in the United States.
There are several different ways to apply for a green card, depending on your individual circumstances. The most common way is through family sponsorship, which allows a U.S. citizen or permanent resident to sponsor a spouse, child, parent, or sibling. Other ways to apply for a green card include employment sponsorship, the Diversity Visa Lottery, and asylum.
