What is the green card process in the United States?

1. Prepare the application materials and submit them to the US Immigration Service.

Prepare the materials, sign the subscription contract and submit the application to the US Immigration Service. The applicant first submits an immigration application (1-526). Before the application is approved by the US Immigration Bureau, all the investors' funds are deposited in the supervision bank, so the funds are safe. If (1-526) fails, all investment funds will be returned.

In the first step, as long as the project applied by the applicant is recognized by the Immigration Bureau and the application materials are fully prepared, it can generally pass. The general application period is about 2 to 4 months. However, the application may also fail.

The main reason is that the customer's application materials have problems, or the immigration bureau has questions about the details of the project.

2. Apply for an immigrant visa at an embassy or consulate.

After the approval of the Immigration Bureau, it will be handed over to the American Visa Center for background investigation, physical examination and interview at the Guangzhou Consulate, and a visa will be obtained, and a conditional American permanent green card will be obtained. From the date of obtaining the conditional green card, the principal applicant, spouse and unmarried children under the age of 2/kloc-0 can enjoy the American welfare and security system.

If the applicant has no special reason, he will get the "conditional green card" in the United States, and the probability of failure is very low. Henry immigration experts remind that there are usually three main reasons for applicants' failure. First, the applicant and his family have criminal records; Second, the medical examination is unqualified, and there are serious infectious diseases or other diseases stipulated by the Immigration Bureau; Third, investment behavior has changed. However, if the investor fails to pass the immigration visa, the investment funds can still be returned. But this is more complicated than the first failed refund procedure.

Many, because the investment funds have been invested in the project at this time, so the process of refund is relatively complicated. Investment funds must be returned to the fund company first, and then transferred to the regulatory bank before they can be returned to individual investors.

3. The transformation of the official green card

Within 90 days before the two-year expiration date of the temporary green card, the applicant who obtained the temporary green card can submit an I-829 application to obtain a formal green card. If the Immigration Bureau determines that the investor does meet the requirements, the investor and his family members can formally become legal permanent residents. The US Immigration Bureau mainly investigates investments.

Whether the investor's investment behavior still exists and whether it meets the requirements of hiring local residents. /zd/xx
