Lewisville Immigration

At Greenwood Law, we’re proud to offer clients in Lewisville a wide range of immigration-related services. Let us help you resolve matters like these:

Visa Applications

Foreign nationals wishing to travel to or remain in the United States often require a visa to do so. The type of visa you may need will depend on your reasons for coming to the U.S. An immigration attorney serving Lewisville can review your situation to determine which visa is right for you, confirm your eligibility, and help you throughout the application process.

Family-based Immigration

Non-citizens can become permanent residents of the United States if they are close relatives of a U.S. citizen or a lawful permanent resident. Unfortunately, the process of applying for family-based immigration is not as simple as it should be. Let Greenwood Law help you reunite your family by handling the application process on your behalf.

Employment-based Immigration

The U.S. government offers approximately 140,000 visas available per year for non-citizens wishing to work in the United States legally. These work visas are divided into five categories based on the type of work and the contributions the applicant can make to the American economy. Let us help you pursue your goal of working for a U.S. employer with a minimum of stress.

Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)

Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, is a policy that allows U.S. residents without lawful status who came to the country as children to apply for deferred action for a two-year period, with the opportunity for renewal at the end of the period. Deferred action refers to a prosecutor’s discretion not to initiate removal.

DACA allows these U.S. residents to find employment and live their lives without the looming threat of removal. However, the application process is not necessarily straightforward, and a denial could upend your life. Let an immigration attorney with Greenwood Law guide you through it while protecting your ability to be in this country.

Green Card Applications

A Permanent Resident Card, colloquially called a “green card,” confers permanent legal residency status on the holder, allowing them to live and work in the United States. Applicants must meet several eligibility requirements to qualify, which may be through their family, their employment, asylum, or other categories. Let Greenwood Law advise you on your options and pursue your green card for you.

Adjustment of Status

The adjustment of status process allows you to obtain your green card and become a lawful permanent without the need to return to your home country for visa processing. As such, it can remove one of the biggest headaches associated with getting a green card. An immigration attorney serving Lewisville can review your circumstances to confirm your eligibility and then handle the application process for you.

Naturalization and Citizenship

For many, becoming a citizen is the fulfillment of the American Dream. Naturalization—the process by which citizenship is granted to a lawful resident—allows you to shape the future of the country you call home by voting in elections. It also allows you to travel with a U.S. passport, bring family members into the U.S., and keep your residency status permanently. Let Greenwood Law help you make this dream a reality by advising you on the prerequisites for citizenship, helping you fill out the necessary forms accurately, and preparing you for appealing decisions as necessary.
