Immigration

US citizens don't need visas to enter the US, so it doesn't matter what kind of Indian visa you have. The Indian visa is permission to enter India.

I-601 approval can take anywhere from four to six months. For a notification of an e-mail and/or text message that Form I-601 has been accepted at a USCIS Lockbox facility, complete Form G-1145, E-Notification of Application/Petition Acceptance and clip it to the first page of your application.

Yes but the American citizen has to file a petition for the immigrant.

India does not allow dual citizenship. But you can apply and get a passport-like booklet, at the nearest embassy and consulate general, that will allow you to travel to India visa-free.

Yes, you can and you should. Your green card is the only way to prove that you are a US permanent resident. You are also eligible to apply for US citizenship if you have lived in the US for the past five years.

Yes green card holder can enter Canada. He/she would not require a passport.

Sounds like it would be a good reason for filing a cancellation of removal. The drawback is that you must turn yourself in to ICE and have them begin deportation proceedings. If approved, the person can become a legal permanent resident (assuming the mother has an otherwise good background)

Well the most common way to do it is by marriage as you just mentioned it yet i don't know yet the procedures of that situation however if you are an illegal immigrant you cant become a US citizen you will have to start with permanent residency and than maybe you can become a US citizen but try ghetting married ina lawful way dont pay someone to get married with you or else you will be in a whole lof trouble.

It varies anywhere from a few months to 2 years.
The length of time for the entire process depends on the number of U.S. Citizenship applications the USCIS offices receive in each state. Additionally, making a mistake on your application can cost you even more time.

I cannot see how you can without stating your immigration status. Perhaps a word with the Portugese Consul would help.

That everyone in America was rich.

This will vary from person to person and how busy they are. Most times, the application must be approved by both DHS and Department of State.

You're asking, Can a US Citizen marry a US Permanent Resident!? What a funny question, but to be precise in my answer, YES! and YES, anyone can marry anyone as long as both the individuals are genuine, non-terrorists and non-criminal.

In order to apply for U.S. Citizenship you need to:

US customs and border protection agency uses I-94 form for keeping arrival/departure record for certain foreigners. Average processing time for replacing I-94 is 2.5 to 3 months.

no I'm sorry, I disagree with the above answer. Thousands of Floridians are Permenant Residents of the US, a legal immigration status. As such, they are considered residents of Florida, although they may have no intention of becoming citizens.

about 10,000

The difference between a citizen and permanent residence Citizen are the people that hold the NewZealand passports and they do not have to apply for a visa to Australia but for permanent residence they still have to apply for a visa to be able to travel to Australia

No.

However, if you will stay outside the U.S. for more than six months, you need to apply for a Re-Entry Permit before you go, or you could lose your permanent residency.

Not the only reason but yes

Every immigrant needs a green card. It is a document which allows you to legally live in the country and get a job. I'm an immigrant too by the way. A United States Permanent Resident Card, known popularly as Green Card, is an identification card for a permanent resident of the United States of America who does not have U.S. citizenship. It is proof that the holder has permission to permanently reside and take employment in the U.S. Its former official title was Alien Registration Receipt Card, and it is now officially called a Permanent Resident Card, also referred to as form I-551. The name "green card" comes from the fact that the predecessor form, I-151, was printed on green paper. Form I-551 was adopted in 1977 and has been printed on paper of various colors, none of which were green, but the term "green card" has nonetheless remained in use. As of 2006, the card is mostly white and the only prominent green feature is the lettering on the back. A card includes the holder's name and photograph, and other information, and has been updated over the years with numerous anti-counterfeiting devices. The card must be in the possession of the U.S. permanent resident at all times. This means the U.S. permanent resident must have a currently valid card on their person at all times, to show to a USCIS officer, if requested. One interesting aspect of American law is that permanent residents are required to carry identification cards, but citizens are not. This is because citizens are entitled to more constitutional rights than permanent residents, who are still classified as aliens. Before Sept. 11, 2001, while status was checked when one returned from foreign travel, the requirement to carry the green card was practically never enforced when the resident was traveling domestically. After Sep 11, 2001, officials from the US Department of Homeland Security began to occasionally ask people if they were US citizens or not, and in the latter case require that the person present their Permanent Resident Card or other proof of legal status. Green cards were formerly issued by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). That agency has been absorbed into and replaced by the new U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), formerly the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS), in the Department of Homeland Security. If an alien wants to work while his application for a green card is pending, an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) is needed.
