I am currently on an H2B Visa, Can I apply for green card?

 

How can I get a Green Card when on an H2B Visa?:

 

Currenty, the only way you could apply for a Green Card unther the US Immigration Laws if you are on a current H2B Visa is IF:

 

1. Your boss applies for a permanent position on your behalf (Green CArd through the labor certification process under PERM Processing – However, this could easily take 5-6 years, during which you may not have the permission to stay here in the United State, unless you continuously maintain valid non-immigrant visa status during all those years waiting.

2. Marriage to a US citizen;

3. Applying for a political asylum, or

4. "Winning" the green card DV lottery (assuming you are from a participatory country and meet the DV requirements)

 

Unfortunately, these are the only ways available under the current laws regardless of what others may tell you.
