U.S. Immigration Made Easy

"Easy" is not a word anyone would normally use about U.S. immigration law, but U.S. Immigration Made Easy is the best available resource for helping laypeople (and even lawyers) understand who is eligible to come to the U.S. on a permanent or temporary basis. The book demystifies the law, government policies, and application procedures, discussing almost every possible way to legally enter, live in, or stay in the United States, including through:

• a work visa
• a student visa
• asylum or refugee status
• a green card through family, employment, or in some other category
• a U visa
• and more

Get tips on dealing with paperwork, government officials, delays and denials. Plus, you'll get step-by-step instructions on filling out and filing application forms, and learn the best way to approach the enormous U.S. government bureaucracy.Thoroughly updated and revised, this edition covers the latest changes in immigration law, including restrictions on entry for citizens of certain countries, the phaseout of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for citizens of many countries, the latest average processing times, and much more.
