The green card (Alien Registration Receipt Card) is obtained upon the approval of the immigrant visa or the adjustment of status. This permanent residency can be obtained through Family Sponsorship, Labor Certification through an employer in the U.S., by National Interest Waiver, or other special category for persons of Extraordinary Ability or the Green Card Lottery (Diversity Visa). With a green card, the applicant can work legally in the U.S. and it is proof of lawful residence within the U.S. (See also, Other Green Card Issues for helpful information.)

What We Can Do For You : We at the Murthy Law Firm can process any green card application or petition, whether on behalf of the company or the self-petitioning individual. We carefully analyze your case and make recommendations on the most appropriate process for you or your company to pursue. We then assist with preparing documents and letters, continuing the case through the adjustment of status or consular processing stage, until the principal applicant and family members receive the green card!
