Immigration routes
EB-1 / EB-2 / EB-3 employment immigration
Skilled work
Employer or self-petition (NIW), then wait for a priority date, adjust status or consular process.
Leads to PR：Approval is a green card. Backlogs vary sharply by nationality and category.
Family immigration
Family
Citizens or green-card holders sponsor a spouse, child, parent or sibling.
Leads to PR：Immediate relatives of citizens (spouse, minor child, parent) are usually fastest.
EB-5 investment
Investment
Invest at TEA or standard amounts and create jobs.
Leads to PR：Capital and project risk need independent due diligence.
PR & citizenship
Lawful permanent resident (green card)
Time to PR：Depends on category and backlog, not a single clock
- Keep the US as principal residence; long absences can break it.
Naturalise after 5 years on a green card (3 if married to a citizen): English, civics, residence and good moral character. Dual nationality depends on the other country.
