Yes I am a real estate agent and have a client who has h1b status and wants to know if he is considered a resident alien or not because he wants the $8000 tax credit if he buys a home (He is a first time buyer) The tax form 5405 says you can't claim the credit if you are a non resident alien so the client must be satisfied that he is qualified Are there any other places that h1b can be verified as resident alien
I believe you are not a resident alien at all, you are a alien, legally allowed to live and work in the USA for the duration of the L1 (up to 7 years) but you are not a "resident" There are many law firms who could answer precisely this question.
Any person who is not a US citizen and comes to live here, is an alien resident by law (including green card holders before they become citizens)
?
can nigerian passport holder with spanish resident permit need a visa to visit ecuador.
No, a J-1 visa is a non immigrant visa and therefore not eligible for transition into resident status.
There is not much difference and there is a LOT of difference! A visa number is assigned to a person entering the USA. It later can become his/her Resident Alien number if alien status is granted. An alien number (usually from your visa number) is assigned to you when you have been granted legal Resident Alien status.
There is only one way to remove a visa of someone that is a alien. You will have to take it to court.
yes,
As a H4 visa holder, you do not have an alien registration number, if you have not aplied Green Card (USCIS form I-485) before. To get an alien registration number, the H1 visa holder must apply for USCIS form I-140 first. If an immigration visa is vailable for the H1 visa holder, he/she and the H4 depentent can apply for USCIS form I-485, and then get an alien registration number from SUCIS Servicd center. H-4 visas are issued to the H-1 holder's spouse and children under twenty-one years of age. Holders of H-4 visas are considered to be dependents of H-1B visa holders. As H-4 status holders, spouses and children under twenty-one years of age may be entitled to enter and remain in the United States for the duration of the H-1 holder's authorized stay.
If you are not an Australian citizen or permanent resident you need a visa to be in Australia.
My guess is that the question is not really if a tourist can or can not marry a green card holder (of course she can), but whether there will be an immediate immigration benefit for her. Unfortunally, not.
Yes if you have a Permanent Resident card; however, if you do not have a Permanent Resident card you would need to apply for a visa in advance.
