Frequently Asked Questions – Immigration Law in Houston, TX
How long does it take to get a green card through family sponsorship?
Processing time depends on the relationship and category. Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens typically have faster access, while preference categories may wait months or years.
Can I apply for a work permit while waiting for my asylum decision?
Yes. You may apply for a work permit (EAD) after 150 days of a pending asylum application, with certain conditions.
What’s the difference between naturalization and citizenship?
Citizenship is the end result. Naturalization is the legal process of becoming a U.S. citizen—usually after holding a green card for several years.
Do I need an immigration lawyer if I’m just renewing my green card?
While not legally required, a lawyer can help avoid costly mistakes, delays, or missed deadlines that can jeopardize your status.
Can I still apply for immigration benefits if I’m in removal proceedings?
Yes. Relief options like asylum, cancellation of removal, or waivers may still be available. Our firm handles both immigration applications and deportation defense.
