Read on to learn more about just a few of the many immigration issues handled by Immigration Lawyer Robert West.

U.S. Citizenship

What’s the difference between permanent residency (i.e. having a green card) and U.S. citizenship? This is a common question and source of confusion for many. First, it is important to understand that a person who was not born in the U.S. nor born to a U.S. citizen who had resided in the U.S. for at least five years prior to the birth will almost always have to obtain permanent residency and maintain that immigration status for five years prior to applying for citizenship.

Why bother applying for citizenship? Simply put, U.S. citizens enjoy more rights and fewer restrictions than permanent residents or green card holders, including the right to vote, stay outside of the U.S. with no time limit, and qualify for certain forms of assistance from the U.S. government. Prior to obtaining citizenship, permanent residents will be faced with the possibility of deportation on the basis of committing certain crimes, or even forgetting to notify U.S. immigration authorities of an address change within 10 days of moving.

If you’re unsure as to whether you’re eligible for U.S. citizenship, or you believe you are and aren’t sure how to start the process, contact a citizenship attorney today.

Marriage Visas

If you are legally married to a U.S. citizen, you are eligible to apply for a marriage-based visa, which is also known as a green card. If you obtain a green card, you will be deemed a lawful resident of the U.S., there will be no time limit on that residency, and you may become eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship. In order to qualify for a green card, proof of a legal, bona fide marriage with a U.S. citizen must be demonstrated, and the marriage must have been sought with true intentions rather than for the purposes of obtaining a green card. While it may sound simple to provide proof of these things, doing so actually involves several steps which can become complex. Those who traverse this terrain without the assistance of an experienced attorney who specializes in immigration law run the risk of encountering a number of pitfalls along the way. Contact Attorney Robert West in Las Vegas, Nevada today.

Family Visas

According to U.S. immigration law, there are two main types of family-based visas: immediate relative immigrant, and family preference immigrant. If you meet one of the following criteria, you may qualify for an immediate relative immigrant visa:

  • You are the spouse of a U.S. citizen
  • You are unmarried, under the age of 21, and the child of a U.S. citizen
  • You were adopted outside of the U.S. by a U.S. citizen
  • You were adopted in the U.S. by a U.S. citizen
  • You have a child who is a U.S. citizen and 21 years or older

If you meet one of the following criteria, you may qualify for a family preference immigrant visa:

  • You are unmarried and the child of a U.S. citizen
  • You are a spouse, unmarried child, or minor child of a lawful permanent resident (i.e. green card holder) of the U.S.
  • You are married and the child of a U.S. citizen
  • You have a sibling who is a U.S. citizen

In order to determine your or a family member’s eligibility for either of these family-based visa options, reach out to a family immigration attorney in Las Vegas, Nevada today.

Fiancé Visas

If you are a U.S. citizen who is engaged to be married to a foreigner, you can apply for a fiancé visa. If granted, your fiancé will be able to move and legally reside in the U.S., so long as you agree to get legally married within 90 days of their arrival, and so long as you met them in person within the two years preceding the filing of the fiancé visa application. Once married, your fiancé would be eligible to receive a green card, thereby establishing permanent residency in the U.S.

If the application you filed for your fiancé has been denied, contact an experienced immigration attorney who can help you determine what went wrong and how to address it. At the Immigration Lawyer Robert West firm in Las Vegas, Nevada, you’ll find an extremely knowledgeable and compassionate attorney who’s eager to hear your story and help you achieve your goals.
