| 词汇 | petition (immigration) |
| 释义 | `1`petition (immigration) `2` "Nolo Everybody's Legal Dictionary": The first formal request for a green card or a specific nonimmigrant (temporary) visa. In many cases, the petition must be filed by someone sponsoring the immigrant, such as a family member or employer. That's because the purpose of most visa petitions is to show documents -- such as birth certificates or job offers -- that demonstrate the immigrant's qualifications for the particular visa or green card. After the petition is approved, the immigrant may submit the actual visa or green card application. See Topic: Immigration & Green Cards |
