QUE ES UNA VISA DE INMIGRANTE?
What is an IMMIGRANT VISA?

Una visa de inmigrante es lo que se denomina al proceso por el cual una persona acude a la embajada estadounidense en su país para una entrevista con el fin de obtener la residencia permanente legal en Estados Unidos, también conocida como Tarjeta Verde, tras haber sido solicitada por un familiar o empleador.

An Immigrant Visa is what we call it when a person goes to the US Embassy in their country for an interview in order to obtain their U.S. Legal Permant Residency aka Green Card after being petitioned for by a family member or Employer.

THIS DOES NOT EFFECT NON-Immigrant Visas such as tourist visas, work visas, etc.

Esto no afecta a las visas de no inmigrante, como las visas de turista, de trabajo, etc.

Es EXTREMADAMENTE importante que, si usted es ciudadano de uno de estos países, hable con un abogado de inmigración ANTES de asistir a su entrevista.

It is EXTREMELY important that before you go to your interview if you are a national of one of these countries to speak with an immigration attorney BEFORE attending your appointment.

Thank you to Bennett Haeberle for taking your time in researching and creating this report on the devastating effect of this unjust arrests and detentions of our immigrant brother and sisters under this administration.

I have been unusually quite since 01/20/2025 of all the injustices and evilness that the United States government has done because I could not handle the death threats and nasty messages I received. I focused on my work. But honestly, I am also very conflicted and hurt to know that people I consider friends support this racist regime.

But after I read/saw footage of a white woman Renee Good being murdered in broad daylight in the streets of this country by an ICE officer for standing up and trying to protect our migrant brother and sisters - I knew I had to be vocal and do my part- not because I am a child of immigrants or because I am an immigration attorney, or bc my skin is brown- but because ...

an "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere" is a famous quote by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

"No human is illegal" Saint Oscar Romero.

I am a "Women for and with others" - Pedro Arrupe

"do unto others as you would have them do unto you," Matthew 7:12 and Luke 6:31
