1. How many types of skilled immigrants are there in America?

(2) The applicant has special skills in the field of art, science or business. Special skills mean that the applicant has better professional knowledge in this field than others.

All third-class immigration applications need to be submitted by employers; EB-3 also needs to apply for a work permit.

2. American immigration regulations

There is no strict immigration supervision in the United States. It is recommended to log in at least twice a year. For investors who need to stay in China for a long time, keep in touch with the United States, such as having long-term rented or purchased real estate, children going to school in the United States, using American bank cards and telephone cards, and filing tax returns regularly every year. Moreover, immigration lawyers can help investors apply for "re-entry permits" so that investors can't return to the United States for several years. Simply put, if you have an American green card, you must land in the United States every 180 days, and you can apply for American citizenship after living in the United States for three years within five years, which means that immigration supervision can be cancelled.

1. According to the relevant provisions of the US immigration law, if the green card holder stays outside the United States for more than 180 days (6 months) continuously, but less than one year, the US Immigration Service can infer that you have given up your intention to stay in the United States permanently. When applying for re-entry with a green card, the US government has the right to cancel the investor's permanent resident status and confiscate the green card under certain circumstances, even if it does not voluntarily give up the green card.

In addition to staying in the United States for a long time, you need to do the following six things to express your intention to stay in the United States permanently: an active bank account in the United States shows that you have active and continuous living expenses in the United States. Buy real estate in America. If your main property is in the United States, the stronger your desire to stay in the United States permanently. Your family members (spouse or children) work, live and study in the United States.

3. American immigration law clearly stipulates that to become an American resident (green card), you must have the intention of treating the United States as a writer. As for what this intention really means, the law does not clearly stipulate. On the contrary, court cases provide a lot of valuable guidance. When considering the intention to call America home, the length of residence is a factor, but not a good one. Other factors can be considered, including whether you have a job, investment, bank deposit, house (residence) and family members in the United States. The judge will combine all factors to confirm this intention.

4. Individual income tax should be reported to the IRS every fiscal year. Avoid violating laws or criminal laws. If you are a green card holder, violating the criminal law may lead to serious consequences in the immigration law, such as deportation, prohibition of re-entry, loss of permanent resident status and disqualification from applying for American citizenship. Take an active part in social activities and maintain social ties in the United States. For example, taking a driver's license and joining a club.

According to the law, people who have left the United States for more than one year must apply for re-entry permit. In practice, people who often leave the United States for a long time (less than 180 days) or leave the United States for more than 180 days but less than 1 year can still apply for re-entry permit in advance. If you don't apply for re-entry permit in advance, when you return to the United States, you are likely to meet an immigration official who doubts whether he still regards the United States as his permanent residence.

3. American immigration methods

1, investment immigration

Investment immigrants choose to invest in the United States because they need to invest some money in the United States. Most American immigration projects are "regional center" projects (commonly known as EB-5 projects), and there are many areas to choose from, such as South Dakota, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Mississippi and other investment immigration projects. EB-5 is quite relaxed for applicants, as long as the following conditions are met: one person applies, and the whole family (spouse and unmarried children under 2 1 year old) can get a green card at the same time, and invest 500,000 US dollars in the United States to indirectly create ten jobs. The investment amount must come from legal sources, and the English version of the applicant's income tax form for the previous five years is required.

2. Spouse migration

Spouse immigration Spouse immigration is to marry an American and then obtain American citizenship. This kind of immigration is also easier to handle. If you marry an American citizen, you can go through immigration formalities soon. If you marry someone with an American green card, the immigration procedure will be a little slower. The premise of applying for spouse transfer is that they must have a valid marriage certificate, and the remarried person needs to provide proof that the marriage has been dissolved. Such immigrants can only obtain immigration qualification for two years, and if the marriage relationship is considered true after two years, they can obtain permanent immigration qualification.

3. Relatives emigrate

Relatives immigrated to the United States. There are also several kinds of relative immigrants, including adult unmarried children and their children of American citizens, parents of American adult citizens, spouses and underage unmarried children of American green card holders, brothers and sisters of American citizens and their spouses and underage children, and married children and underage children of American citizens and their spouses. Different application types have different immigration procedures and speeds, which depends on the conditions that are most suitable for applicants to choose immigration methods.
