The four main types of immigrants are naturalized citizens, permanent and conditional residents, illegal immigrants, and those with non-immigrant status. Naturalized citizens are those who have passed the U.S. citizenship test and have met all of the requirements, such as living in the country for 3 to 5 years. Permanent and conditional residents have the ability to live and work in the country but have not yet gained citizenship status. Illegal immigrants refers to anyone who is in the country through illegal means, such as crossing the border without proper procedure or overstaying a visa. Those who are on work or student visas or other temporary status are given non-immigrant status.

What Department Handles Immigration in the United States?
Understanding what part of the U.S. government is responsible for handling immigration-related applications, answering questions, and making immigration policies is important to ensure that you are contacting the people who can help you. In the United States, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services office handles the majority of these types of issues. The Department of Homeland Security can also be involved, but this is usually reserved for immigration enforcement. Another resource for immigrants is the Citizenship and Immigration Services Ombudsman and, of course, immigration attorneys.
What Should I Do If My Immigration Application Is Denied?
If your immigration application was denied, it’s important to talk with an attorney as soon as possible. There may be other things you can do to stay in the country legally, but it’s important to take action quickly. An immigration attorney can help you file the appropriate paperwork and provide counsel on what to do in the meantime.
