There are two types of U.S. visas, non-immigrant and immigrant, and the main difference is the length of time they allow you to stay in the U.S.

  • Non-immigrant Visas are issued for temporary stay in the U.S. Non-immigrant visas are issued to people who live outside the U.S. but who wish to visit the country for different reasons like tourism, business, studying or working. These visas are usually issued for periods between three months and two years and may often be extended.
  • Immigrant Visas are issued for permanent stay in the U.S. An immigrant visa allows you to travel to the U.S. and once you enter, to legally establish your residence. This means you will officially become a U.S. permanent resident and receive a lawful permanent resident card (green card) in the mail. Permanent residents, also known as green card holders, are allowed to live and work in the U.S. permanently. There are three categories of immigrant visas: family-sponsored, employment-based and special immigrant.

Family Visas

At the Law Office of Jessie M. Thomas in Richardson, Texas, we work in all of these avenues for obtaining a visa, but most of our work is based on family sponsored visas, including spousal visas and fiancé visas. We help clients that have married to have conditions removed from their green card. We also assist clients with their green card renewal process. Get Started Today!
