Synopsis

This text provides an introduction to immigration law in the United States, aiming to help immigrants become aware of their rights and know when and how to seek legal assistance. It offers instruction on how to file petitions and applications successfully in order to get an immigration benefit - ranging from asylum, to a green card, to citizenship. Answers are given to questions about working legally, job discrimination, temporary stays, the visa lottery, access to public benefits, and other matters. Taking sharp issue with critics of both legal and illegal immigration, the book argues that the US could not be competitive in the new global economy, or staff its hospitals, or care for its children, much less cut sugar cane and harvest apples, without the skill and hard work of men and women from all over the world.
