Dallas immigration attorney consulting with a client about a green card

Green Card Lawyer in Dallas

Legal Permanent Resident (green card) status grants the right to live and work permanently in the United States and is generally a required step on the path to U.S. citizenship.

Who Is the Legal Permanent Resident For?

→ Immediate relatives and other family members of U.S. citizens or permanent residents
→ Employment-based immigrants sponsored through an approved I-140 petition
→ Individuals granted residency through humanitarian categories such as asylum, VAWA, or the U visa

Who Qualifies

Eligibility depends on the underlying category - family relationship, employment sponsorship, investment, or humanitarian protection - combined with admissibility to the United States and an available visa number.

How to Apply

Permanent residency is obtained either by adjusting status (Form I-485) while in the U.S. or through immigrant visa processing at a U.S. consulate abroad, followed by admission with an immigrant visa.
