My 19-year-old daughter will come as a dependent. Can she work?

By opting for an immigration process under the EB-1 category, the main advantage is that, once approved, the principal beneficiary and their dependents, such as your daughter, receive permanent resident status (green card). This means that, after arriving in the United States, your 19-year-old daughter, as an eligible dependent, will have the right to work legally in the country.

In practice, as a green card holder, she will be able to seek employment in any field without the need for a specific work visa. It is worth emphasizing, however, that it is essential to always respect the United States immigration laws. Every stage of the process, from the application to entry into the country, requires attention to the legal procedures and documentation required by immigration authorities.

Furthermore, it is highly recommended that interested parties seek updated and reliable information about the requirements and procedures by consulting official sources and, if necessary, immigration experts. Be cautious of marketing campaigns or miracle promises that may offer results without proper transparency or legal support, as this can lead to unnecessary risks in your process.

Remember: staying well-informed and following current laws is the best way to avoid complications and ensure that your family enjoys all the benefits of permanent resident status in the United States.
