Green Card and Citizenship Lawyers in Plano
Legal Counsel For Green Cards And Citizenship
Even if you have a valid green card from work or family-based sponsorship, you are only allowed to remain in the U.S. as long as the federal government allows you to. Becoming a full citizen would let you stay indefinitely while having the same civil rights and benefits as any other U.S. citizen. As a full U.S. citizen you will have the following rights:
- Voting and participating in government
- Applying for jobs only available to citizens
- Bring over other family members faster than a permanent resident can
- Having citizenship granted to your children who are born abroad
