However, the process can be intricate, requiring extensive documentation, employer sponsorship, and compliance with strict immigration laws. Our attorneys are committed to guiding you through every step, ensuring a smooth and efficient process.

Common Types of Employment-Based Green Cards
The U.S. immigration system offers several categories of employment-based green cards, each tailored to different qualifications and skill levels. The most common categories include:
EB-1: Priority Workers
The EB-1 category is designed for individuals with extraordinary abilities, outstanding professors and researchers, and multinational executives and managers. This category does not require labor certification, making it one of the fastest routes to permanent residency.

"I highly recommend Rina Gandhi and her firm."
This is Walid Chaker and I have just became a new citizen of the United States. Rina Gandhi has been my attorney during this whole process which began several years ago. She and her staff could not have been kinder and given more attention to my case. They helped me all along the way, and it was deeply appreciated and will always be remembered. I highly recommend her and her firm.- Greg R.
