About This Course

This CLE program provides a comprehensive introduction to U.S. immigration law, offering participants a strong foundation in this dynamic legal field. The course begins with an in-depth look at nonimmigrant (temporary) visas, including their various categories, eligibility requirements, and application processes. Participants will then delve into the pathways for obtaining lawful permanent resident (LPR) status, such as family-based and employment-based immigration, as well as other special circumstances. The program also covers the process of attaining U.S. citizenship, focusing on naturalization steps and eligibility criteria. Additionally, participants will learn about employer obligations under immigration law, including compliance with verification requirements, proper employee work authorization procedures, and potential penalties for violations. The course will explore the implications of employer sanctions and provide guidance on the anti-discrimination provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act, emphasizing protections against unlawful bias in hiring, firing, and recruitment based on citizenship or national origin. Designed for legal professionals, this program equips attendees with the essential knowledge and practical tools to navigate the complexities of immigration law confidently and responsibly.
