Is a finance visa the same as a green card?
This is a question that causes a lot of confusion. The answer is no. However, a fiance visa can quickly lead to a green card (permanent residency). A fiance visa (k-1 visa) enables a US Citizen to bring an overseas fiance to the United States so that the couple can get married. The marriage must take place within 90 days of the overseas fiance entering the United States.
If I apply for a tourist visa, will I be able to eventually obtain a green card?
In short, yes. There are two major areas of immigration law, permanent resident and non-permanent resident immigration. Many of you know permanent residence to mean obtaining a green card, which can ultimately lead to Citizenship. Non-permanent residence (also known as a non immigrant visa) includes temporary visas such as tourist visas (B1 or B2 visa) or temporary work visas (H1B temporary skilled worker visa) or even fiancé visas (k1 visa) and spouse visas(k3 visas).
US immigration and visa System
Immigration refers to the movement of people from one country to other. While the movement of people has existed throughout human history at various levels, modern immigration implies long-term, legal, permanent residence in that country. Short-term visitors and tourists are considered non-immigrants. Immigration across national borders in a way that violates the immigration laws of the destination country is termed illegal immigration.
