An immigrant is anyone who moves his place of residence from one country to another.  You can come to the US temporarily for school or work on a temporary non-immigrant visa.  But if you want to stay permanently, you must apply for an "immigrant" visa (otherwise known as a green card).\n\nReceiving a green card is the final step of the process of immigrating to the United States from a another country.  It gives the holder the right to live and work permanently in the US.

There are restrictions early in the process, usually while the immigrant is waiting for their permanent resident status.  I think once they hold a greencard they can come and go as they please.  Even during the early "probation" period, they can request permission to travel abroad for family emergencies and such.  \n\nThe local INS office can usually tell the immigrant their restrictions and give them any papers they need to fill out to get permission to leave if they're in a probation period.

If you have your green card then that is all you need to enter the US. If you enter on a pp then it will not show you are a landed immigrant.  The green card or I151 shows you are a landed permanent alien or LAPer.\n\nDo not listen to people who tell you to talk to a lawyer. It is a total waste of time and money. INS will answer all your questions for free.

Generally, because you have a child who has the US citizenship due to the birth in the US, does not grant you the US citizenship at all.  I have not heard any cases due to a sole reason that a parent was granted the permanent residency status, because the child was the US citizen.  (I caution you that I do not practice immigration law full time, however)\n\nHaving said that, your status as being a student (assuming legally student for 5 years) should not affect your green card application status, barring some unknown facts.   I suggest you apply for the permanent residency through the work permit (H-1) or apply for the lottery program (50,000 slots every year for qualified applicants).

In most cases, you must be a US citizen.

Are you a born citizen of Canada, a naturalized citizen of Canada, a landed immigrant or just a visitor passing through Canada?  For a born Canadian you will need 2 pieces of ID, one of which must be picture ID and your birth certificate.  Naturalized citizens will need there citizenship card plus a second piece of ID, probably picture, and maybe also a birth certificate.  All others will need a passport and Visas.  To simplify things get a passport.

A REAL, LEGAL green card provided from the immigrant. Not an illegal trespasser.

No Not in your case. they have lottery's but when you get married to a citizen especially a GI things are a little easier. You will become a naturalized citizen. The thing that's happened is a few have done fraudulent marriage for that purpose. So in turn INS has in some cases questioned the legitimacy of the marriage. Only in some cases. so they may tell you that after 2-3 yrs we will give you citizenship they have guidelines but I hope it goes well for you!!

I have never heard of a transitional passport for greencard holders.  What would the purpose of it be?\n\nAs far as I know, a greencard holder just needs the greencard and a passport from country of birth in order to travel outside the US.

Their ask where and with whom do you live with. Your job, what do you want to do after you get your grren card such as; where do you want to work or go to school. If you got married to a US citizen to obtain the green card, then they may put both of you into different rooms and ask the same question to see if you two have the same answers. They will ask personal questions that married couples should know about each other, there is a bunch of them. \nExpand your question about your situation for better help, how are you going about obtaing the green card, by a test, marriage, independent?

According to the wording on Florida's DMV site regarding the acquisition of a license for a non-United States citizen:\n\n"Original Driver License or Identification Card Florida law requires identification, proof of date of birth and social security number (if issued) from all customers before a driver license or identification card can be issued."\n\nThe term "if issued" would have me think that it isn't necessary to have the number issued yet, as long as the other items listed are provided.\n\nI've included a link below to Florida's Department of Motor Vehicles information regarding this topic.

give them your SSN, they would know your status. i think it would appear what kind of SSN you have, whether your an immigrant, or has a working visa or an EAD, etc.

It depends of the category you applied on. Unless you are the spouse of a US citizen, there is a very long waitng period for your visa number. If you are the spouse of a US citizen once your applcation is approved you'll have to go to the embassy or immigration office where you applied for the fingerprints/interview and yes that is it. You'll get your green card in the mail.\nIf you applied in any other category (son/daughter, parents or simblings of a US citizen) the wait is very long. Depending on your nationality and category you applied on it can take from 1-25 years to get your visa number.

Your status (as stated above) will not change and will remain the same as the day he walked out that door! Additionally, If you have reached the age of majority (18 yoa) your status will rely 100% on your actions!! not your fathers!\n\nBy the way...where are you now and what is your immigration classification? From your statement, you should of also receive your Green Card as a Family Preference Alien...are you just trying to get a free ticket to citizenship??

Uhhh hey smart one everybody who lives in America had descendants come from other countries. If you're not in America, oh well. I think modern day immigrants are the people who just got here and don't have green cards lol
