For many individuals and families around the world, the dream of immigrating to the United States is a profound aspiration. The journey to achieve this, often through an immigrant visa, can be complex and filled with intricate legal requirements. In Syracuse, New York, Craig Nichols and the team at Nichols Law Offices, PLLC, have been dedicated for nearly 30 years to guiding clients through this crucial process.
An immigrant visa is a cornerstone for those who wish to live permanently in the United States. Unlike non-immigrant visas, which are for temporary stays, an immigrant visa is issued to individuals who intend to reside permanently in the U.S. and eventually seek lawful permanent resident status (a Green Card).
