Enjoying the world we live in is a wonderful experience, and becoming a citizen of the United States is a great opportunity. Strict immigration laws are in effect and require compliance to legally reside in the United States. At Hunter Law Firm our focus on immigration law includes the resources and legal insight to be able to effectively handle your case.
A person may apply for citizenship through naturalization if he or she has been living in the United States legally as permanent resident for at least five years, or three years if married to a U.S. citizen.
Citizenship through naturalization is a great opportunity for some individuals because on becoming a legal U.S. citizen, they will automatically receive all benefits of citizenship without having to worry about losing permanent resident status. In addition, naturalized citizens mayY petition to admit family members under family immigration laws.
Visas and green cards allow people to enter the United States and remain there lawfully. There are several kinds of visas which allow people to enter the U.S. temporarily for a specific purpose. Green Cards allow the holder permanent resident status, and must be obtained by a family-based petition.
Our attorneys may be able to help you obtain a visa or green card for you or a family member. Our services range from residency applications to deportation defense. We assist with individuals as well as businesses. Whether the need is a Non-Immigrant Visa or Immigrant Visa, our bilingual staff is ready and eager to help.
