Can a US green card holder travel to Spain without a visa?
The fact that you hold a US "green card" is essentially irrelevant. What matters is the relationship whatever country you are a citizen of has with Spain.
US Citizens, with a US passport, can enter Spain for up to 90 days without a visa. You should check with your country's embassy or consulate to determine whether you can legally enter Spain without a visa.
Can a french citizen minor work in the US?
The minor needs to be of lawful working age in the state where s/he plans to work. S/he also needs to have the correct immigration paperwork authorizing him/her to work. For information on visa options, see www.martinvisalaw.com.
How can I marry someone if I have been in this country for 10 years after my J1 Visa expired.?
The question is " How you can marry someone if you have been in this country for 10 years?"Now, i cannot understand clearly what do you mean. First, i assume that you do not have any legal status right now.Second, it is possible for you to marry and receive a green card if that was the original question. You have entered the USA legally through your J1 visa, due to that reason you will not be required to go back and re-enter USA legally again. The point is that you need a lawyer if you want to marry and apply for immigration status. If they approve your petion the immigration officer will grant you a pernament resident card , probably conditional.Now, i am not sure about another one possibility here. You might have a chance to apply for immigration status without marriage if you prove that you have lived in the USA in that period of time. Eventually, you have to pay some fine and taxes , but i believe this is another alternative. However, you definitely need a lawyer for your case. I had a friend who was here for 9 years illigaly and she got married with good lawyer , she received her green card in 6 months, so cheer up there are always possibilities.
Good luck!
no no .. i dont believe nothing that shes says weed is awsome get high with the people you love but foreal tho you need to chill not everyone is going to be paying attention to your self but foreal people can do whatever the hell they can smokeee weed or cocain dont matter.
Can a person who enter America on file and got deported reenter?
You can re enter after your ban period is over. But the probability is very less. You cannot enter if the ban is for lifetime.
No, you are not required to participate in the Social Security System.That said, most, but not all employers, require their employees to participate in the system, and therefore if you choose to work for that particular company you need to apply for a Social Security Number and use it in their employment. (Some city governments, such as my city, do not have to require all employees to participate in Social Security which is why I, on my 23rd year as a police officer, have never paid into Social Security and will never receive it.)Another class of people that choose not to participate in Social Security are some self-employed business people--if you own the company and you're the only employee you do not need to require yourself to participate in Social Security.
AnswerSome foreigner businessmen/women who do business with US companies do not have SSN's. They Use something called ITIN's (individual taxpayer identification number) to pay taxes in the US. AnswerNot it is not illegal to live in the US without a SSN. It is illegal to live without the authorization of immigration laws (INS) though. AnswerI partly disagree with the first poster. It is illegal for an employer to hire someone in the US who doesn't have a social security card. Normally aliens who have work permits will be issued social security cards, or an alien ID card that proves their right to work. Any employer who hires a person without the supporting documents required by an I-9 is subject to fines of up to $100,000 per person. (Yes, some do it anyway and pay cash, but it's illegal.)Taxpayer ID numbers are primarily for small business owners and contractors, who are not employees.Does every citizen have to have a Social Security card? No, but if they are going to be claimed as a dependent on their parent's income tax, or file their own income taxes, or collect most types of disability, or attend most schools, then they will need one. It's almost unfathomable that an adult US citizen would not have one.
With a child born in Canada the mother is a us citizen and the father is Canadian What is the child?
The child would have dual citizenship; Canadian and American.
Can a US citizen can sponsor a servant from other country?
No, since a servant is not a job category that would require a bachelor's degree, so the servant would not qualify for a work visa.
yes the baby will be an American citizen but for the parents, they have to apply for their kid to get 18 years old and he will apply first for green card and after 5 years of permanent residence they can then apply for citizenship....isn so easy as people imagin
First of all, the term "waiver" comes up in Immigration law more than once and, in more than one case the term is related to a visa. Most commonly, "visa waiver" and "waiver of inadmissibility."
There is a difference between a visa waiver and a waiver of inadmissibility. A visa waiver applies when a qualifying alien comes to the United States without formally applying for a waiver at a US consulate.

Where did most Asian Immigrants get to America?
Most of them got to the Americas from the land bridge known as Beiring Bridge. Asians were the oldest immigrants and are called as Native Indians. The European immigrants only started coming to Americas after the discovery of America by Columbus
Tourist visas are intended to allow individuals to *temporarily travel to the U.S. If you make it to the U.S. port of entry, immigration officials may send you back to your home country once they learn you are married to a U.S. citizen. Remember, immigration officials at the ports of entry have discretion to do this. Moreover, if you LIE about your marriage status you will regret it when you try to adjust status in the U.S. Your husband needs to move forward at this point. As the U.S. citizen, the U.S. government gives HIM the privilege to petition for you to immigrate to the U.S. He should decide whether he wants to petition for a K3 or IR visa. Both visas will allow you to enter the U.S. and eventually become a permanent resident. http://www.dixonimmigration.com/index.php?pid=2
Compare rights of US citizens to rights of Canadian citizens?
This is a massive question, one that is too large in scope to cover in this small space. You would have to compare the Canadian Constitution to the American Constitution. As well you would have to compare the Bill of Rights from both nations.
What is the difference between receiving a citation and being charged with a crime?
Depends. A common term for citation is a traffic related citation. A traffic citation can include 'charges' for both civil and criminal offenses, depending on the state laws in effect at the time of the alleged offense.
How can someone who entered the country as a minor with no visa become a resident?
Any one, including a minor, enters US should have a visa. If a minor enters US without a visa and U.S. custom inspection & I-94 card, most likely, this minor enters US illegally. If that is the case, it is very difficult for this illegal minor alien to become legal US Permanent Resident later, according to current US immigration law. Even if after many years, this alien marries with a U.S. citizen, this alien is still not eligible to adjust his/her status to US permanent residence inside the U.S., because he/she entered U.S. illegally without U.S. custom inspection and I-94 card.
I have more of a comment: I noticed in my research that it seems harder for a person who was brought here as a child when they had no say than for and adult who is here illegally. Why are there more ways for a CAnadian to be here legally than a Mexican national. Especially, ones brought here as children.
There are a number of reasons your work privileges may be limited or restricted. If you do not hold the proper licensure, you would not be permitted to work in certain fields. If you do not have the necessary education, you would not have the knowledge or ability to perform certain jobs. If you were previously convicted of a felony, you can be openly discriminated against for no other reason than that conviction.
No, if you were deported for a criminal offense, you can never re-enter the US.
Answer . Yes but you would have to apply for a visa and a waiver from the consulate. If the waiver is granted you would be free to visit the U.S. once again
