The 2025 U.S. Green Card Process for International Scientists: What You Need to Know Now

ACS Webinars

Amid the headlines and online information surrounding U.S. immigration policy, it's easy to feel uncertain about what’s changed, especially if you’re a foreign scientist looking to come to the United States or secure your permanent residency. However, even though there are new economic and law enforcement factors that now must be considered, the path to a green card for scientists remains largely the same when compared to the previous administration.

Join Brian H. Getson, Esq. of Getson & Schatz, P.C. (www.researchergreencard.com) for a practical, up-to-date webinar on how to successfully apply for a green card through the EB-1 (Extraordinary Ability) and National Interest Waiver (NIW) categories. Learn how to avoid costly missteps and make informed decisions about your immigration journey from a leading expert in U.S. immigration law. Register now to ask your questions live and boost your chances of approval.

This ACS Webinar is moderated by Tom Halleran of the American Chemical Society and co-produced by the ACS Office of Career and Professional Education.
