A great misunderstanding of immigration.

Myth 1: You can apply for a green card as a skilled immigrant when studying in the United States. American immigration policy does have corresponding regulations for people with special skills or outstanding talents, or I can get an American green card through a work visa H 1-B, but it doesn't apply to 99% of international students. Maybe many people don't know that it's difficult to get a green card in the United States through immigration of excellent talents or H 1-B, otherwise, how can there be so many turtles and kelp in China in recent years!

Myth 2: Can I apply for a green card after living legally in the United States for five or seven years?

The United States does not have a policy similar to "you can apply for a green card after living for X years"; The immigration policies of some countries include "you can apply for a green card/permanent residence after living for X years", but the time spent studying abroad is not counted; The immigration policies of a few countries allow "you can apply for a green card/permanent residence after living for X years" and include the time of studying abroad.

Comments: American green card holders who have lived in the United States for five years can apply for American citizenship.

Myth 3: American immigrants can apply indefinitely.

Different immigration methods will have different policies and implementation methods, but they all have a * * * nature, that is, if you fail to apply for immigration, subsequent applications will be more difficult to pass. This is also the reason why many skilled immigrants are not fully sure and do not apply easily.
