How long does a family-based green card take in New Jersey?
For immediate relatives, the process typically takes 8 to 14 months through the Newark Field Office. Timelines vary based on visa category, country of origin, and USCIS processing backlogs.
What are the penalties for unlawful presence?
Unlawful presence can trigger 3-year, 10-year, or permanent bars to re-entry under federal law (8 U.S.C. § 1182). The length depends on how long you remained in the U.S. without status.
