Frequently Asked Questions — Immigration in Nevada
What is the difference between a green card and a visa?
A visa is temporary authorization to enter or remain in the U.S. for a specific purpose and duration. A green card (Lawful Permanent Resident status) grants indefinite permission to live and work in the U.S. without restriction. Green cards may be based on family relationships, employment, refugee/asylum status, or diversity lottery. An immigration attorney can advise the best pathway for your situation.
What happens if I receive a Notice to Appear in immigration court?
A Notice to Appear (NTA) initiates removal/deportation proceedings against you in Immigration Court. You have the right to an attorney (at your own expense). You must appear at all scheduled hearings — failing to appear results in an automatic removal order. The Las Vegas Immigration Court handles cases for Nevada residents. An immigration attorney can evaluate your eligibility for relief including cancellation of removal, asylum, or voluntary departure.
How do I apply for U.S. citizenship in Nevada?
To naturalize, you must be a lawful permanent resident for 5 years (3 if married to a U.S. citizen), have continuous U.S. residence, pass English and civics tests, and demonstrate good moral character. Applications are filed with USCIS (Form N-400). The Las Vegas USCIS Field Office handles Nevada naturalization interviews. An immigration attorney can verify your eligibility and prepare your application.
What is DACA and does it still provide protection?
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) provides renewable 2-year work permits and deportation protection for individuals who entered the U.S. as children. DACA status has been subject to ongoing litigation but existing recipients with valid status generally continue to receive work authorization and deportation protection. An immigration attorney should advise on the current legal status of DACA and your renewal rights.
