What is the benefit of becoming a permanent U.S. resident?
The benefit of becoming a permanent resident is that you obtain a right to live and work permanently in the United States. As a lawful permanent resident, you will receive a permanent resident card, commonly known as a Green Card. This card is evidence of your status as a lawful permanent resident, and of your registration in accordance with United States immigration laws.
How can I become a permanent resident of the U.S.?
If you have been present in the United States since January 1, 1972, you may be eligible for the “registry” provisions of U.S. immigration laws which would allow you to obtain lawful permanent residency, even if you are illegally in the United States now, or if you initially entered the U.S. illegally.
You are eligible to apply for permanent residence if you:
Note: Any alien who has at any time engaged in terrorist activities is ineligible for registry. Further, any alien who fails to appear at a removal hearing, or who fails to depart after agreeing to voluntary departure, is ineligible for registry for a period of ten years.
