A non-resident gets a green card by applying for one through the BCIS. Below is the general application process.
The Green Card Application Process
Getting your application for a green card processed and approved by the BCIS has many steps:
* Get a sponsor - A sponsor can be a relative who is a United States citizen or an employer
* Apply to a U.S. consulate or embassy in your home country - if you are already in the United States on valid visa, you can apply here
* The BCIS will check to see if you are "inadmissible" - inadmissible is defined by many categories such as: mental or physical disorders, a past conviction of a crime, or prior activity deemed subversive
