When Timely Success is Essential
Second Opinion for Permanent Resident Applicants Stuck in the Backlog
Obtaining a green card in the United States through employment can take many years. This wait is significantly longer for nationals of India and China as well as those who are classified in the Third Preference Employment Based Category. Applicants in these groups may wait ten years or more. Simmons & Ungar attorneys have extensive experience working with green card applicants stuck in this lengthy backlog. We understand that differences among professional, personal and immigration needs may result in the need a re-evaluation during the long wait.
We can provide you with a second opinion regarding your options and work with you to develop a strategy that best meets your personal, professional and immigration goals. Expert strategic analysis is available from our lawyers with respect to changing jobs, marrying a foreign national or American citizen, traveling and working overseas, and the maintenance of non-immigrant status until the green card is issued.
