Green Card Lawyers Nyc

Resolving Immigration Problems, One Client at a Time

Last year there were over one million green cards granted throughout the United States. The large demand for green cards comes primarily because of the privileges and rights that come with being a permanent resident of the United States, which include being able to live and work anywhere in the U.S., apply for a driver’s license, come and go from the country, apply to be a U.S. citizen, and much more.

The NYC green card attorneys at Cohen Forman Barone care about immigrants and their families and work hard to give them the opportunity that they deserve. We have a proven track record that has made a difference for many of our clients, and we are ready to help you too.

How to Get a Green Card in NYC

A green card is a permit that allows non-U.S. citizens to live and work permanently in the U.S. Green Card eligibility is determined by meeting certain qualifications according to your particular situation. There are eight distinct paths to obtaining a green card in the U.S.

The available paths to getting a green card include:

• Green card through family
• Green card through employment
• Green card as a special immigrant
• Green Card through asylum or refugee status
• Green card for human trafficking and crime victims
• Green card for abuse victims
• Green card through registry
• Green card through other categories

Each of the above-listed categories has specific eligibility and application requirements. Whatever path you take, it is important that your green card application be handled by an experienced attorney. Misguided applications and improperly prepared immigration documents can lead to either delay or rejection of your application.
