What are the advantages of the GreenCard?

The GreenCard entitles you to permanently emigrate into the United States under relatively simple and less bureaucratic conditions. Should you desire to settle permanently in the US, you are of course entitled to do so in any of the 50 states freely and unconditionally. You are under no obligation to give up your current citizenship.

Life in the US does provide enormous opportunities. The US economy is the largest and most dominant in the world; and unemployment is below 4 %. In most parts of the United States, quality real estate prices are well below the cost of comparable property in Europe. The overall environment is better and has more potential than what prevails in Europe. And last but not least, the US dollar has remained one of the most stable convertible currencies over the past several decades.

Working and Studying

This could be your
GreenCard!

There are additional perks: your tuition costs for vocational, professional or university studies will be reduced by up to 80 %. You are entitled to public assistance and, under some conditions, you might even be able to apply for special visas for relatives who wish to follow you to the US.

You will not face any restrictions in the job market. The entire US playing field of career and professional advancement is yours to explore. Furthermore you will receive certain trade licenses quickly and easily. Above all, with the exception of voting, you will be entitled to all the rights of a US citizen without losing your current citizenship. If you want more, you can always apply for US citizenship after only five years as a GreenCard holder.

If you still dream of:

- living in the US for a longer period of time,
- starting a completely new life there,
- studying at one of the renowned US universities or professional institutions,
- exploring new professional and career options,
- becoming your own boss (self-employed), and
- enjoying your retirement there.

… Then this is your chance. Do not hesitate. The future could be only an application away. The DV-2012 Program is a unique opportunity to make the dream come true!
