If you marry a US citizen, you can use this choice. To show that you are married while you are already in the US, you must go through the process of "adjustment of status." You can apply for your Green Card at a US port, though, if you are not in the US. You will get a Green Card and have conditional residency in the US no matter which of these choices you choose. In this case, you have the same rights as a regular US resident for two years. You and your spouse must agree to remove the terms of residency 90 days before the two years are up. Everyone agrees that you are still in a long-term relationship, which means you can stay in the country permanently. In some cases, you don't need a joint agreement to change limited residency to permanent residency: The end of your marriage has been announced. Your partner has died. Your partner hurt you physically or treated you badly. This choice is also open to LGBTQ and same-sex partners. For couples in this kind of relationship, the process is the same. It costs $325 to apply for a Green Card based on marriage.
The K-1 Fiancé Visa
A K-1 Fiancé Visa is often given before the marriage-based Green Card. Until you get married, this visa gives you the same rights as a permanent resident. It's for Brazilians who care about US people. For this visa, you need to meet a number of conditions, such as:
Someone who is a US citizen must ask for the visa. The wedding has to happen within 90 days of the fiancé coming to the US. Neither partner can be married to someone else (if they were married before, they must show proof of divorce or death). They had to have known each other for at least two years before they applied. If you have a K-1 Fiancé Visa, you can also bring your kids to the US. They will need a K-2 Visa for Dependents, though. This choice is also open to LGBTQ+ couples, just like the marriage-based Green Card. It costs more to get a K-1 visa than some other types of foreign visas. It costs a total of $800. Status Change from a K-1 Fiancé Visa to a Green Card Based on Marriage. To make your move from Brazil to the US permanent, you will need to switch to a marriage-based Green Card after getting married to a US citizen. At first, you should see if there are any reasons why you shouldn't be admitted. Some of these are:According to the Department of Health and Human Services, having a sickness that can spread
Being hooked on drugs
Being disabled in a way that could make you act dangerously toward others
Not being able to show any proof of vaccination
If any of these things are true, you need to get a waiver of inadmissibility. You need to use Form I-601 to explain why your application should still be accepted even though you are not allowed to be there. This will be sent in with your application. Next, to change your status, you need to fill out Form I-485.
You must also send in the necessary documents in order to complete this application. Among these are your
Keep track of when you enter and leave the United States.

Proof of birth and marriage

A legal passport with an entry stamp and your K1 Fiancé Visa
Two pictures like on a passport
Record of vaccinations
If you have broken the law in the US, court and police records
Form I-864 (Affidavit of Support) must also be filled out by a US citizen on your account. This person is most likely your spouse. This form is proof that they will pay for your needs while you are in the USA.
Green Cards for Families
If you have family in the US, you can also get a Green Card that lets you stay long-term. This process is open to close family members of US citizens. Along with a US citizen's
Parents of a spouse who are 21 years old
Kids younger than 21
You might be able to get a Green Card if you have other family ties. The name for this group is "family preference." The wait times in this group are known to change. The speed at which your application is processed will depend on which of the following family ties you have. The person is a US citizen;
Child over 21 years old who is not married
Any age married child
Brother or sister over 21
Or the partner or child of a permanent resident of the US
The cost to apply for a Family-Based Green Card is $325.
An EB-5 green card for investors
Having family in the US is not the only way to get into the country and get a Green Card. To get a Green Card, people who want to invest in the US market can also join. What you need depends on where you want to put your money. The government has marked places with high unemployment and slow economic growth. To get a Green Card based on investments, you must: Put $900,000 into one of these places or a rural town. Make ten secondary jobs.
That being said, you don't have to be directly involved in running the business you've started.
If you want to invest in a city that hasn't been singled out for its high unemployment rate, the rules are tighter. That which is required means you have to.
Spend $1 million
Make ten secondary jobs.
Directly manage your business
The steps to get an EB-5 Green Card are the same no matter what kind of business you want to start or where you want to spend. You have to put the whole amount needed into the business before you can apply for the Green Card. This gives you a limited permit to live in the country for two years and a way to get a permanent permit. The fee for the Investor EB-5 Green Card is $3675.
Reasons Why Your Visa May Be Rejected
In the United States, visa applications are sometimes turned down. This will make it very hard for you to move to the USA.
