How can I become a permanent resident?

In order to become a permanent resident of Kansas, you will need to apply for an immigrant visa through the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Depending on the type of visa you are applying for, you may need to fill out forms and also provide documents such as evidence of employment, financial support, and other related information. If the visa is approved, you will need to enter the United States before the expiration date of the visa. When you arrive in the United States, the USCIS will inspect and process your immigration documents. If approved, you will be granted a temporary resident status. Once you have held your temporary resident status for a certain amount of time, you will be eligible to apply for a permanent resident status. You will need to fill out a form and provide documentation that you have been living in the United States for at least five years, or have been married to a U.S. citizen for at least three years. You may also submit additional documents to the USCIS, such as evidence of good moral character and financial stability. Once all of your documents have been submitted and approved, you will be granted permanent resident status. You will then be allowed to live in Kansas for as long as you wish.

Para convertirse en residente permanente en Kansas, hay varios pasos que debes seguir. Primero, debe calificar para la residencia permanente. La mayoría de las veces, esto significa cumplir con los requisitos de inmigración de Estados Unidos, como hablar inglés, pasar un examen médico y demostrar que está en condiciones de trabajar. Una vez que haya cumplido con las reglas de inmigración, a continuación, necesita un documento de autorización de residencia permanente. Estos documentos, también conocidos como tarjeta verde, se obtienen solicitando una visa de inmigrante a través de una embajada, un consulado o el Departamento de Estado de los Estados Unidos. Una vez que tenga un documento de autorización de residencia permanente, puede solicitar el status de residencia permanente presentando la formulario I-485 a la Oficina de Ciudadanía e Inmigración de Estados Unidos (USCIS). Se necesita completar esta forma, junto con documentación adicional para demostrar que cumple con los requisitos y pagar derechos de presentación. Una vez que el USCIS apruebe su solicitud, recibirá su tarjeta de residencia permanente. La tarjeta de residencia le permitirá vivir y trabajar permanentemente en los Estados Unidos, y también le dará los derechos y la protección bajo las leyes estadounidenses.
