There are eight main categories of people who qualify for permanent residency. No matter what avenue you take, you need to be eligible for a green card under the law, known as the Immigration and Nationality Act, and moreover you need to be “admissible” to the United States of America. Remember: if you don’t see that you easily fit into one of these categories, it’s worth contacting a top immigration lawyer who may have access to ways to help you that aren’t listed here.

To be happy and successful as a lawyer: find a path that you love, practice the best way you can, & work with compassion. I reject the myth that lawyers must put in twenty hour days doing jobs they hate! There are hundreds of ways to make use of law school and to have a satisfying career. In Three Degrees of Law, I point out how apathy will kill a lawyer faster than anything!

Media reports are circulating regarding the injunction issued on the 2014 Executive Action, by the Honorable Judge Andrew Hanen of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, in Brownsville, Texas. While the order will have an impact on the government’s ability to accept Expanded DACA applications on February 18, 2015 as planned, this order is not permanent.

Executive order – It’s been five weeks since President Obama spoke to the Nation on Immigration Action. In that short time, law firms all over America which exclusively handle immigration matters have been flooded with calls, emails and in person consultations.
Most people want to know about expanded Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and Deferred Action for Parents (DAPA). We have been doing our best to educate the folks who contact us on the executive order. And in these communications we have already done our best to separate truth from rumor.
