Green Card Attorney Dayton
Green Card Attorney Dayton
A permanent resident card (PRC), known to many as the green card, is issued by the U.S. government to immigrants or lawful permanent residents. Having a green card will enable you to work and reside in the U.S. and affords you certain rights not afforded to non-immigrants. The process of getting a green card could, however, be long and complex.
Fortunately, our competent green card attorney in Dayton at The VanNoy Firm can give you proper legal assistance. Meanwhile, below is some essential information that will give you a better idea of what you can expect if you’re looking to seek permanent residency in the U.S.
Basic Steps to Getting a Green Card
The exact steps for getting a green card could differ from one case to another. But the following steps will apply to the majority of foreign national applicants:
- A petition on your behalf will be filed by a U.S. sponsor, which could be an immediate relative or employer.
- You then wait for the USCIS to approve the petition and then get a visa number.
- Next, you’ll file your visa application with the Department of State or a permanent residency application with the USCIS.
- You will be given an appointment to provide your fingerprint scans, your signature, and some photos.
- You will come in for an interview where you’ll be required to present specific paperwork.
- Finally, you wait for the decision of the USCIS and hopefully receive your green card.
Keep in mind that the steps will be different if you have a unique case, such as if you’re an abuse victim, human trafficking victim, or refugee applying for permanent residency. Likewise, having a criminal record might complicate the process or automatically result in a denial, depending on the nature of the crimes on your record.
Now That You Have Your Green Card
Now that you’ve been granted a green card, you are now a lawful permanent U.S. resident and must carry your card everywhere you go. You are likewise responsible for renewing your card every 10 years. If you were only granted a conditional green card, you should change its status by filing a petition within 90 days before its 2-year expiration date. Most importantly, remember that you can still be deported if you’re a lawful permanent resident, so you should avoid participating in any criminal activities or things that may qualify for your deportation.

I couldn't be happier with the outcome of my case. From the first time I met with my team to our last interaction, I always felt like I wasn't a number or a case, I was a person. The whole team was professional, responsive to my calls and concerns, and fought for the outcome I deserved. They even sent me an Ele cupcake for my birthday. I recommend this firm to everyone I know and will return if I ever need services in the future!
Hannah
I am giving this firm a five-star rating for two reasons. First is the professional way in which I was treated. Every person I spoke with at this firm was professional and extremely courteous. I felt as though I was being treated as a natural person and NOT just a client. In many professional settings, clients are treated as such clients. Therefore they are held at arm's length. This gives off the impression a client is just a number, and there is a coldness and sterility to the service. I was NOT treated in this manner at the Vannoy Firm.…

Anthony VanNoy is an absolutely top-notch attorney. From start to finish, my case was handled with empathy, efficiency, and utter professionalism. The outcome was better than I'd dared to hope for and I cannot recommend him or his firm highly enough.

I first want to thank the staff and the company itself I work with Brittany and Patricia and it was so smooth on my end they took care of everything. They had no problem working with me even when I live the incident happened in a different state. Very very professional in my eyes and my family’s.

Keara Dever took the initiative to advocate for me in my very difficult situation. When no one else would listen to me, she did. She was very supportive and understanding and I am very appreciative for her services. She went above and beyond what I would have ever expected. Thank you so much Mrs. Dever. And by the way, she is AWESOME!!! Carl. M

Great experience and I would recommend to anyone in need of counsel for any civil/ Legal matter. They have people that specialized in certain areas and they can give you information or tell you which way you need to go with the case. I had a great experience and my friend called last week and the same professional help was given! Call them you won't be sorry!
