Green Cards & US Citizenship

A green card is the permanent ability to live or work in the United States. If you have a job offer from a U.S. employer or you are a U.S. company seeking to sponsor a foreign national for a green card, there are several options under the current immigration laws. All categories are designated with the EB title, which stands for employment-based. There are three main types of EB green cards: EB-1, EB-2 and EB-3. Your job duties and your educational and experiential background will determine which employment based-category is right for you.

Berardi Immigration Law is well-versed in all type of employment-based green cards. Each year, we successfully file petitions with USCIS on behalf of multinational managers/executives, aliens of extraordinary ability, aliens with advanced degrees and skilled workers. Each employment-based green card category is complex and requires ad advanced understanding of the requirements and nuances. A green card is a permanent benefit issued by USCIS. It allows employers to retain their key employees and allows foreign nationals to live the American dream.

US citizenship/naturalization is a separate process with many benefits for those who have already been a permanent resident of the United States.

Testimonials

  • Julian G.

    “Berardi helped me with my first L1 visa in April 2016, they then managed to get my extension without any delay, followed by my Green Card. Awesome people to work with, they kept me updated and copied on all the correspondence. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for visa support. The staff were fantastic, I was made to feel like a human being, almost a friend of the team.”

  • Maximilian S.

    “After working in the US under the O-1 non-immigrant visa I had made the decision to apply for the green card. Berardi Firm had helped me with my O-1 visa and I felt like I was in good hands for my immigrant visa application. The application process can seem complicated, confusing and overwhelming. Since the government has strict and precise requirements, applying for the Greencard is a serious but important step; Berardi Firm’s guidance and advice lead to a successful application approval. I felt confident to leave such a critical task in their hands. The entire firm and Samantha Edlich were friendly and very helpful in guiding me through the process. Importantly, they understood my industry and job classification, thereby correctly advising on the supporting materials needed for a successful application. Without-a-doubt, the success of my application would not have been possible without Berardi and their stellar legal advisors. My favorite part of working with Berardi Immigration Law was the friendly, timely and professional responses throughout the process helped make it a smoother and easier experience.”

  • Shahzeb B.

    “I wanted to move to the US long-term from Canada. The firm suggested I go through the L1-A (Inter-company Manager/Executive) visa process, since my company in Canada was willing me to transfer me to the US and this was the shortest path for me to get a green card in the US. I was a bit scared initially, as I did not have direct reports, nor was I a very senior person in my organization. I was only in my mid 20’s! Berardi Immigration crafted a brilliant case for me, as to how my job description and responsibilities fit with the guidelines provided by USCIS for my the Executive/Manager category. They left no stones unturned, were very meticulous and responsive. I had the utmost confidence that they knew what they were doing, which put me at ease throughout this process. They were also very responsive and made sure every question I had was answered. “

  • Cindy B.

  • Chris J.

    “Rosanna, thank you so much for all of your hard work! You and your staff were great to work with and provided us with the results we needed. I will call you when it’s time to renew my green card and look forward to you helping me apply for citizenship when the time comes.”

  • Gianna

    “My husband, Kyle needed to get a TN visa and later on, a green card. Berardi Immigration Law was extremely helpful in clearly explaining what we needed to do, outlining the best way to do it, reminding us when deadlines were approaching and fixing any problems that arose. And of course, securing the visa and green card in the end. In all of this, the firm was quick to respond and very pleasant to work with. The experience was painless – and immigration dealings are often the opposite – and we knew we could always trust that Berardi Immigration Law would come through in the end. Having that trust gave us peace of mind during otherwise stressful times.”

  • Lisa M.

    “Our granddaughter was thrown out of her home in Canada by her stepfather on her 16th birthday. We went through 3 attorneys trying to gain legal status for her in the U.S. Thanks to Rosanna and Kris, she now has her green card. Her life can begin.”

  • Fawn M.

    “My US permanent residency card expired and needed the 10-year renewal. With clear instructions and efficient direction, the renewal process was made simple, understandable and painless. Samantha Edlich was my favorite part of working with Berardi Immigration Law.”
