IMMIGRATION AND NON IMMIGRATION

Understanding the Difference between Immigration and Non-Immigration

Immigration

Overseas migration generally is preferred by people looking at good earning potential with options to settle down as soon as possible and create a financially stable zone for the family. Therefore migration is a key component in the new age group people and they are ready to walk the extra mile to achieve what they desire.

People in most countries work hard to maintain their status for the purposes of living legally and making the most of it. Also, if an applicant can gain access to PR or Green Card, they again desire citizenship. This process however needs the applicant to maintain certain prerequisites & very strong documentation for the same. Documentation plays the most important in any immigration or visa file.
