There are few categories of platforms that one can easily use and successfully be a US permanent citizen. Am going to take you through these categories so that you can evaluate yourself and find out which category best fits you.
If you are a foreign national seeking permanent residence and are lucky enough to have an immediate-relative relationship with a U.S. citizen, you will be in a good position to acquire it easily. This category works best for someone who has not married and probably wants to mmarry someone who is a U.S. citizen. Children who are below age of 21 and happens to be having an immediate relative in U.S. can also find it easier to acquire permanent citizenship using this category.
Under this category an employer in the U.S. is usually the entity sponsoring a foreign national for permanent residence eligibility. In addition, the employment-based categories generally correspond to the difficulty and educational requirements of the employment that the foreign national is to undertake.
