Immigration and the Internet
We live in interesting times. Our current government appears to be stressing preventing people from abusing our immigration system over helping people to legitimately immigrate, or even visit. As such, people planning on coming to the United States, and visitors and green card holders here in the United States must be aware of their presence on the Internet.

Of course, those individuals here should follow U.S. laws regarding immigrant and visitor status. Here at Lum Law Group, with our over 50 years experience, we are doing our best to help individuals and companies here and abroad navigate these waters in these turbulent times to insure they are compliant with the current laws, and to understand their alternatives based on each individual’s circumstances, whether that arises in a family or business setting.
