Immigration law in the United States allows for several distinct approaches to entering and remaining legally in the country. Family sponsorships provide green cards for the spouses, children, siblings, and parents of U.S. citizens, though these programs have long waiting lists due to limits on how many immigrants from a single country can receive green cards in a given year. Employment-based immigration, the next most common type, allows for immigration by skilled foreign workers and their immediate families. Slightly less common are allowances for refugees, which have had their annual admissions capped at lower numbers under the current presidential administration.
Other forms of immigration are also available. The U.S. visa lottery grants visas to individuals from countries which have been underrepresented in American immigration, and programs like Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals provide temporary work permits and deportation protections for those who arrived as children.
