How can a foreigner get a green card in the US? What different ways are there and which is the easiest?

Did you do a Google search? There's got to be millions of sites with tons of info out there for basic questions like this. I can't see how the time it would take for a member to write out all the info would be more beneficial than a quick net search. Edit; I just typed in "getting a green card in the USA" and got about 100 million hits.

Do the Google search, and understand that getting a green card is a difficult, time-consuming process. And you have to live here and STAY here while you're doing it.

What employment prospects do you have? IMO, best way is an H4 and then just get your employer to sponsor you for permanent residence.

I am not a lawyer, not an expert in immigration, and this should be taken solely as the musings of someone on the NetWebz.

I'm also not an expert, but I've seen the process first hand with my wife's family. This is good advice. It also helps if you have family members who are citizens/permanent residents of the U.S. Those family members can petition to have you brought over.

The sad thing here is that you are not being facetious.

Hot gamer chick usually turns out to be Bob from Accounting or some basement-dwelling Morlock.

Team Speak and Vent really straightened that out.

Also, I mispoke above. I think the category is H1B visa, not H4. Good thing I put a disclaimer in.

It's actually the H-1 visa holder that an employer hires. The H-4 is a dependant of an H-1 visa holder.
