I am applying green card for my parents. They are concerned that they may not be able to come USA and stay for more than 6 months each year, particularly since they are elderly and not in a great health. Is there a special rule for older people holding a US green card not to come USA every year but every two years?
No- you need a valid passport too
Green Card along with a US Passport is necessary to re-enter the US. If the person has stayed out of the US for year or longer than that, then a permit to reenter the country is also a MUST. I-131 has to be filed and approved before the person leaves US. This process includes a biometric test once the application gets through. Failing to appear for the biometric session will result in the I-131 getting rejected.
If at ll the person wants to apply for citizenship, then he/she must remain in the US on a green card with 5 yrs. If the card is a conditional green card, then it will be just 2 yrs. Also they need to accumulate atleast 5 yrs of continuous residence in the US.
How long a person with green card can stay out side US if he is a United Nation employee?
I dunno, how quick can you fill out forms, and how fast can your preacher talk? Whether you have a green card or not is largely irrelevant to how long it takes to get married.
There is not a way to tell how long it will take get a green card to get back to the US. It all depends on the person background.
Never
A Green Card is issued for a 10 years period. You can keep on renewing it as long as you want. So there is no limitation on how long you can continuously in USA with a green card.
90days
The timeline for converting a H1B to a green card is 3-6 years. There are also expenses and fees associated with the process which can rach into the thousands of dollars.
If you remain married, she can apply for citizenship after 3 years of residence in the US.However, if she's hold the green card for 5 years and has live in the US for 5 years, she can apply at that time if it is sooner than the married case.
Right after the marriage , the thai immigrant should apply immediately for a green card , he/she has the right to do so, and then after obtaining green card she/he can stay in US whatever he want , even after getting a divorce. Your question is ambiguous, be more specifically . What's your status ? Have you applied for a green card yet? If you get divorce, before you got some legal documents you can be deported. Call a lawyer, he can help you.
No it is not the same. With international Student card you can stay in USA as long as you are a student with condition. Green card lets you stay permanently.
If you marry a citizen in the United States, it could take several months to obtain a Green Card.
You can travel within the US with a green card so long as it is valid. A green card is NOT a valid document for international travel outside the US. To travel outside the US, you will need a passport and possibly visas depending upon the passport you hold and the country you visit. Please check with the local embassy/consulate for the most up to date visa requirements for your country's passport prior to travel.
