How about immigrating to America?

Immigrants are legal permanent residents. Permanent residents enjoy roughly the same rights as American citizens. For example, they can live in the United States indefinitely, work in the United States, and freely enter and leave the United States.

So how can I get permanent resident status in the United States?

Beneficiaries can apply for immigration outside the United States, or adjust from non-immigrant status to immigrant status within the United States, mainly in the following ways:

Relatives immigrants: parents of American citizens, spouses of American citizens, children of American citizens, spouses and children of American permanent residents.

American Law Many professionals in China have comprehensively and systematically studied American immigration and nationality laws and federal regulations. At the same time, relying on the rich professional knowledge and years of practical experience of American registered immigration lawyers, we also pay close attention to the latest policies and trends of the US Immigration and Naturalization Service, the State Council, consulates and other officials, and provide self-help guides such as "relative immigration", "lottery immigration", "application immigration", "investment immigration", "special immigration" and "excellent immigration" for those in need. Applicants can apply for immigration on their own according to our operation guide. Of course, if the situation is complicated, you need to consult a lawyer to avoid making irreparable mistakes.

There are no clear restrictions on American embassies and consulates abroad. Generally speaking, anyone who goes to the United States for sightseeing, business, entertainment, visiting relatives and friends, seeking medical treatment, attending meetings, going to see exhibitions,

It was decided by the consul on the spot, so it was subjective and even unfriendly. In areas where it is difficult to apply for a B visa, such as Chinese mainland, generally speaking, the main factors considered by visa consuls are the necessity of the applicant going to the United States and whether the applicant has an immigration tendency. Financial ability is an important consideration in theory, but it is often not the most important in visa cases, and you will return to China on time. Here is an example. Two Shanghai calligraphers were invited by the famous American book fair. In the United States, Liu is a single woman and obtained a visa, while Wang is a male painter, but she was refused a visa. According to the usual situation, it is easy for a single woman to apply for a B- 1/B-2 visa, but Ms. Liu is an associate professor in an art college and will hold a solo exhibition soon and provide relevant certificates, so the consul thinks that her home country has great contact with her and gave her a visa. However, male painters in wang xing belong to only one painter's association. Although he is famous, he has no fixed occupation. Therefore, the consul believes that he has no "problems" in his home country and was refused a visa because of his "immigration tendency".

Another example is two gentlemen in the United States, one is an American citizen and the other is a permanent resident. They all go to visit relatives in the United States with their parents. However, parents who are American citizens are denied visas, while parents who are permanent residents are granted visas. The reason is that among the parents of permanent residents, the father is still working, is a department-level official of a government agency, has a private house at home, and submitted relevant certificates when applying for a visa. As the parents of American citizens, both of them are retired and have no property such as real estate. It is easy for the consul to think that they will "naturally" stay in the United States after going to the United States.

Although there are no clear regulations or requirements for applying for a visa, the two factors that the consul considers whether to grant a visa are the key points of the materials provided by the applicant. Generally speaking, the inviter or the applicant in the United States should emphasize the necessity of the applicant going to the United States as much as possible. If the parents are visiting relatives, try to explain that the applicant himself has no time to visit his parents and the two places have been separated for a long time; Going to the meeting is to emphasize the importance of attending the meeting and so on. For the applicant, you should submit circumstantial evidence to return to China as soon as possible, such as real estate license, title deed, owner's certificate, bonds, work certificate, promotional materials, upcoming activities that are important to you and so on. The purpose of submitting these materials is to believe that the applicant has more contacts and concerns in his home country and will not easily stay in the United States.

To apply for a B- 1/B-2 visa, you need to provide the following documents and supporting materials:

Basic materials:

1.DS- 156, DS- 157 tables.

2. Photos (posted on DS- 156)

3. Invitation letter or explanation of reasons for going to the United States.

4. Passport valid for more than 6 months.

Supplementary materials:

1. Economic guarantee issued by American relatives and friends.

2. The applicant's economic proof (such as bank deposits, traveler's checks, etc.). )

4. B- 1/B-2 visa application rejected?

B- 1/B-2 can't complain if the visa application is refused. Consular refused the B- 1/B-2 visa application, either because the application reason was not sufficient, or the applicant had no intention to return to China, or both. However, because the B- 1/B-2 visa can be applied at any time, we should observe the reasons for refusing the visa when applying, and wait until there are sufficient reasons or new materials can be submitted before applying. Some people change their passports after their applications are rejected, and then apply from other banks, because American embassies and consulates around the world stamp their rejected passports. But in practice, they change their passports, apply again with their original passports, get visas or be refused visas. Therefore, if the visa is refused for the first time, when re-applying, we should focus on providing circumstantial evidence with sufficient reasons or intention to return to China.

How to apply for visa extension of B- 1/B-2 with intransitive verbs?

The procedures and documents for applying for extension of visa B- 1/B-2 are the same as those for visa B- 1/B-2, except that the letter for applying for extension may be the inviter, relatives and friends of the applicant or the applicant himself. Generally speaking, the Immigration Bureau will not emphasize too much whether the reasons for applying for extension are sufficient, but more importantly, whether the applicant has enough financial ability to pay his expenses in the United States. Therefore, when applying for extension of B- 1/B-2, the applicant should give more consideration to providing his own deposit certificate. If the deposit amount is not enough, you need relatives and friends to issue economic guarantees.

The following documents are required to apply for B-2 visa extension:

Table 1. 1-539

2. 1-94 Application Form

3. Financial (bank) certificates or economic guarantees issued by relatives and friends of the applicant.

4. If you have family members, you need to submit proof of relationship, such as marriage certificate and birth certificate.

5. The application letter written by the inviter, relatives and friends or myself, which aims to explain the reasons for the extension and has sufficient economic ability to maintain the expenses in the United States.

6. Application fee. B- 1/B-2 applies for extension, and the applicant should submit it before the 1-94 card expires, but not more than 60 days in advance, otherwise the immigration office will not accept it. Applications submitted after the deadline can only be accepted if there is a full explanation for the delay time, such as illness and post office delay.

7. B- 1/B-2 visa extension application rejected?

The general immigration bureau will not refuse the application for visa extension of B- 1/B-2. If you refuse, most of the reasons are that the applicant has no financial ability or financial guarantee. Therefore, if the B- 1/B-2 visa extension is rejected, the applicant should consider providing new and stronger economic proof. The method and procedure for requesting the Immigration Bureau to "review the case" are the same as those for the B- 1/B-2 visa. If the re-application is rejected, it is best for the applicant to leave the United States on time so as not to affect his re-entry in the future.
