What is the minimum amount of time you can have an H1-B visa before acquiring a Green Card? |
[Edit] |
Answer
I am not an expert on immigration but, I have read a lot about immigration procedures. I think that everyone with a visa other than a simple tourist visa can apply almost immediately for permanet residen alien visa (green card). But do not take my word for it, since i can not remember well.
Answer
I meant that I am not immigration expert, but I have read about immigration procedures (USA).
Answer
You can begin right away, as long as your employer has already conducted the necessary recruitment procedure for the Labor Certification. Labor Certification under PERM is now taking just a few months, and there after you can simultaneously submit your Immigrant Petition and green card application.
