When someone does not live in the United States and wishes to move to America, he or she must first secure an immigrant visa to apply for entry. This process has many challenges and is extremely complex. Before even applying for a visa, a person must first qualify for an immigrant classification, of which there are many. In order for an immigrant visa application to be successful, a person must meet all of the many requirements and abide by the many rules. These also vary depending on the type of immigrant visa for which the person is applying.
Too often, visa applications are denied, mostly due to the fact that individuals applying for them do not always understand the many requirements and procedures. To ensure this does not happen to you when you apply for your visa, you should speak to a Skokie visa lawyer.
There are many different types of visas you can apply for if you wish to live in the United State permanently. They include:
Each of these have different requirements, and the procedures are also slightly different for each. A Skokie visa attorney will explain all of the differences, as well as the type of visa for which you may qualify.
Just as the requirements and procedural rules for the different immigrant categories differ, so too do the timelines for obtaining different visas.
Immigrant visas that are family-based are typically the quickest to be approved. Employment-based visas can also be granted quickly, although these are sometimes held up if a certification has to be obtained from the U.S. Department of Labor. When that is the case, the processing times for the varying regional offices differs greatly.
The visas that take the longest time, unsurprisingly, are those that have the most requests. This creates a backlog in the system, which means you will have to wait until the many other applications are processed before seeing movement on yours.
Although not all visa applications present challenges, many do. When that happens, it is most often due to any number of factors. These include:
When submitting an application on your own, all of these mistakes are easy to make. A Skokie visa attorney will help you fill out your application so you have the best chance of receiving a positive answer as soon as possible.

Mr. Jeffery and Mr. Kevin Racia were the attorneys handling a complex immigration case of mine. On the assurance of both attorneys that the case is going to be presented in a systematic way, I went ahead with confidence. I was able to become a legal permanent resident.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to the remarkable team of Khiabett Osuna, Brittani Rivera, and Rafael Rodriguez, who were responsible for the successful release from detention of one of our parishioners, husband and father of four, after over 10 weeks of incarceration.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my attorney, Brittni Rivera, for her professionalism and support during a very difficult time. I was in detention for 6 months, and thanks to her hard work and filing a habeas corpus petition, I was finally released. In addition, when I was released, ICE did not return my documents. Brittni did not ignore this issue — she took action and successfully…
My aunt was recently detained by ICE and sent to El Paso, Texas to the East Montana Detention Facility. This place is essentially a prison in the middle of the desert, and the majority of the detainees here get deported.
