Family-Based Green Cards

The United States is home to many who have family abroad. Fortunately, this nation’s immigration system allows citizens and lawful permanent residents to file visa petitions for their family members. Immediate family members, especially spouses and children of U.S. citizens can find the process easier than other extended family members. Regardless of the family relationship, we can help you navigate the immigration process for your family member.

Employment-Based Green Cards

The United States allows individuals from around the world to come into the country to pursue employment opportunities on a temporary or permanent basis. A number of employment-based visa categories are available to foreign nationals whose objective is to work or open businesses in the United States on either a temporary or permanent basis. SG Legal Group has proudly helped companies and prospective employees from around the world form business relationships and navigate the obstacles of immigration law. Whether you are an employer or an employee, it is important that you have quality legal representation on your side.

E-2 Treat Investor

Strong E-2 cases tell a compelling story. It is as much a sales pitch as it is a legal application. The government wants to see the entrepreneurial spirit of the investor along with the positive local, regional, and/or national economic impact of the investment conveyed through a business plan and represented on your visa application. Presentation is key. If you have an idea, the entrepreneurial drive to execute, and access to a modest amount of capital to invest in the U.S., you may qualify for an E-2 visa. Schedule a consultation with our office to review your eligibility and ensure compliance under U.S. immigration law

Naturalization

One of the greatest joys of working in the immigration law field is helping clients achieve their goals of becoming citizens of the United States. The process, though challenging, is ultimately very rewarding when all is said and done. If you made a decision to pursue Naturalization, schedule a consultation with our Legal Group to review your eligibility and ensure compliance under U.S. immigration law.

Waivers

An individual may be refused entry to the United States due to a finding of “inadmissibility”. Under immigration law, an individual can be found inadmissible on the basis of numerous grounds–including criminal, drug-related, security, medical and immigration violation grounds.

For this reason, and the inherent difficulty of a waiver to begin with, a detailed and complete evaluation of each case is critical.

Other Visas & Statuses

If you are coming to the US for tourism, but would also like to take a short course of study that is less than 18 hours per week, you may be able to do so. However, if your course of study is more than 18 hours per week, you will need a student visa. Of the hundreds of thousands of students that come to the U.S. on a student visa annually, some run into immigration issues or have related questions. SG Legal Group is here to help!
