Welcome to another edition of the Legal Zone, the podcast where we tackle injustice. We have another great show with 2 Bob Babanian and Joseph Barr joining us to discuss immigrant visas & non-immigrant visas, and immigration laws.

What is immigration law?

Immigration law is simply the rules and regulations established by the U.S. government for determining who is allowed to enter the country and for how long they stay in the country.

Visas 

What is a visa?

A visa is an official document that allows the holder to legally enter a country.  It’s a pass, so to speak.  It’s a pass that says, “you’re okay to enter.”  

Passport.  

What is a passport?

A passport, on the other hand, a document that is issued by your own country, and it gives you permission to travel in and out of your own country.

So, you get a passport from your country to travel outside of your country and back.

Then you get a visa from a foreign country to travel to that country legally.  

There are a number of visa types that the United States issues that will give permission to foreigner to enter.

Types of Visas

Immigrant and Nonimmigrant Visas

  • IR visa is the immediate relative visa—after being married for 2 years, you gain permanent status
