Visas for the USA
Visas are divided according to immigrant and non-immigrant categories. Most expats in the USA will want to obtain an immigrant visa, as this gives permanent residency and increases employment opportunities. This is commonly referred to as the 'green card' although it is no longer green. These are attainable through employment sponsorship, family ties, and a visa lottery system.

Non-immigrant visas are usually reserved for tourists or temporary residents but can be used in some scenarios for temporary employment. There are a huge number of ways to qualify for both types of visa. Processing times vary depending on the location applied, but are usually less than six months. To make options easier many expats hire an immigration lawyer; although, these can be expensive.
