I have relatives who are American citizens. How can I get a green card or become an American citizen?

Relatives cannot automatically make you an American citizen. Relatives can prepare some necessary documents in America.

To join the United States, you must first obtain permanent residence status in the United States, submit relevant forms, and wait for the schedule. I am currently in America. Explain the process according to my situation.

I came to America because my immediate family (parents) suggested it. My father is from China and my mother is from the United States.

But I'm not my mother's own.

Therefore, it is not eligible for automatic acquisition of American identity. Therefore, you need to apply for a visa to enter the United States. First, I went to the Beijing Public Security Bureau to get a China passport (which must be prepared), and went to the hospital certified by the US Embassy in Guangzhou for physical examination and vaccination. And get the report (X-rays and the like must be obtained) and the personal medical booklet (what's the name of this booklet? It slipped my mind. This booklet is necessary and the doctor will give it to you. This is very important, it is written in Chinese and English)

Proof of relatives (notarial certificate, some photos of my father and my birth mother) I brought the court verdict of divorce (it is not recommended to bring this thing because it has nothing to do with your situation)

Important documents: China passport and ID card (required).

Currency of processing: 200 yuan RMB (this is my handling fee at that time, and it will be refunded if it is successful. I suggest you ask the embassy when you do it. Please refer to the embassy, because I really can't remember how to pay the fee, which may be misleading. I won't explain how to pay the fee below. Anyway, you can find out when you go to the embassy. )

All finished. Go to the Beijing embassy to fill out the form. Check the above items. Here you go. Waiting for notice (attention! Be sure to write down your fixed location on the form! Otherwise you won't get the notice! )。 Be informed. Grandma and I went to the embassy again (to pay the money again) to see the embassy minister. At this time, my parents flew from America to Beijing to cheer me on.

The first failure, months or a year later. Do it again. Get the visa stamped by the embassy on the visa page of China passport and a card with my photo (Note: Don't think the card is green just because it is green. I can only say that you are embarrassed)

Handle air tickets at Beijing International Airport and enter the United States. Please listen to the flight attendant's tips on the plane. She will ask you to sign the document written into the United States government. Please prepare on the plane. Also, don't abandon your boarding pass. This also needs immigration inspection)

When you enter the United States, you should go through immigration formalities at the immigration office (check your passport, boarding pass, medical pamphlet and luggage). )

After release, go back to your hometown in the United States to rest.

Then one day, I will go to the immigration office to apply for a foreigner's residence permit, which is the so-called "green card". My family took me to do it. If you can't speak English, your parents will do it for you, but you must be present. ), got it.

Ok, now, the next thing to talk about is naturalization. Basically, the residence permit (green card) can be used as the main identity document. But you can take your passport, just in case. )

I would like to remind you that you must have lived for five years and have a source of income (bank card, work, etc.). ) before you can apply for naturalization. And I can't go back to China once, otherwise I will recalculate for five years. That's why I haven't played in China for five years. )

More importantly, this process is quite long. Because there are too many applicants.

You must have a lawyer next. He will make you apply for conscription at the age of 20 -2 1. Fill in the form (regarding the naturalization form, the lawyer will tell you what it is)

Waiting for the notification from the Naturalization Bureau. What to do next? . . . I don't know. Because I haven't experienced this part yet. Now I am preparing for the naturalization interview and written test.
