For jobs in the U.S. where there is no worker in country able to successfully perform the job, a labor certificate could be obtained to hire a worker from another country. You could be granted a work visa which is different from permanent residency but could still be difficult to secure.

For those who wish to become a permanent resident of the U.S., a green card may be a good option. However, the process of applying for a green card can prove to be fraught with difficulty. In order to ensure that your case goes smoothly, contact us.

Other non-citizens do not only wish to retain residency, but want to apply for citizenship. One of the most common ways to do so is through naturalization. As the number of immigrants in the U.S. is increasing, so is the difficulty in being granted naturalization. Authorities will make every effort to find any excuse to deny an applicant.

Our goal is to supply you with every advantage, so that you have the best possible chance of securing citizenship.

The Importance of New York Immigration Lawyers

Immigration continues to be a leading contributor to the growing population of the U.S. In 2009 alone, more than 1.1 million foreigners obtained lawful permanent residence in the U.S. According to the Department of Homeland Security, the number of new green card holders in the country represented an increase of 2.1% from the previous year, and a drastic 34.5% increase from 2000. While a majority of immigrants were granted entry only temporarily, either through a tourist visa or a business traveler’s visa, there were still quite a few that became permanent residents of the country.

Unfortunately, the numbers reported in Homeland Security’s Yearbook of Immigration Statistics 2009 do not reflect the many immigrants who applied for citizenship or naturalization and were denied their requests. If you were one of these individuals, there is legal help at Pozo Goldstein, LLP. Our New York immigration lawyers regularly help those individuals who are attempting to complete the immigration process successfully, as well as those who’ve encountered problems along the way.
