 As
the globalization of our economy increases, businesses
are in greater need of immigration law services. In
response, KDDK has doubled its efforts in this field
by expanding its library resources and acquiring a
computer database of guidelines and materials from
the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). These
resources support us in helping clients work through
this complicated area of the law.
KDDK attorneys assist
with most immigration matters involving employees
from outside our country's borders.
The following offers an overview of the immigration
process and immigration law. We welcome any questions
you may have.
Visas are stamps issued by United
States consulates or embassies around the world which
allow a foreign national to come to the U.S. from
abroad. A Visa stamp indicates that the U.S. State
Department is satisfied that a foreign national is
coming to the United States for a lawful purpose.
A foreign national (or alien) may be denied a Visa
stamp if it is determined that person is attempting
to enter the U.S. under circumstances that are not
allowed, or illegal, such as terrorist activity,
drug trafficking, inability to support oneself or
communicable disease.
At a port of U.S. entry, an official
of the INS examines the Visa and questions the alien
to determine whether
the conditions for issuing the Visa still exist.
A Visa is not a guarantee that an alien will be
allowed into the country, and the INS has the authority
to
turn away entrants. A successful entrant receives
a separate document reflecting his or her entry
to the United States. This document commonly includes
a date by which the entrant must leave the U.S.
