Overview of Permanent Residence (“green cards”) for International Faculty, Staff, and Students
- Tuesday, February 22nd 2011 from 2:00pm – 3:15pm
This session will provide information about the routes to
permanent residence (a “green card”). It will briefly address
family-based immigration but focus on employment-based immigration. We
will discuss the most common routes to permanent residence through
employment and how one chooses the most appropriate route. In addition
to providing an introduction to the labor certification process, the
session will describe the immigrant petition, the adjustment of status
application, and the required supporting documentation. The process for
an accompanying spouse and children will be addressed. The session
will also provide a brief overview of the options available to
researchers who do not have permanent positions, for instance,
post-docs.
Audience: This workshop is open to anyone interested in learning more about permanent residence in the U.S.
