Am I able to avoid deportation?

What is a visa and how is it different than a green card?

A visa is a type of passport stamp that allows you to apply for permission to enter the United States. Many people confuse green cards and visas and this can lead to major confusion about their status in the United States. Visas do not guarantee that you will be allowed in the US. In fact, the US Customers and Border Protection team will determine if you are allowed to enter and for how long you can stay here.

Green cards are a type of documentation that will allow you to work and live legally in the US. If you have a green card, you can eventually apply for US citizenship.

With an H-1B visa, what is a specialty occupation?

The specialty occupation refers to specific duties that require a specified skill set or knowledge to complete them. In general, those who qualify for the specialty occupation will have a bachelor's degree or higher.
