  3. Citizens A US citizen is either an individual born in the United States or becomes a naturalized citizen after 3 to 5 years as a resident in the nation. Citizens in the US cannot be deported, apart from those cases involving citizenship gained with the help of fraudulent methods.

  4. Permanent and Conditional Residents • These are two different types of immigration status. Legal Permanent Residents (LPRs) are all those immigrants who have a Green Card and have the authority to stay in the US and work permanently. One can be a permanent resident of the United States by having a family member or employer fund him as a Green Card applicant or if the immigrant turns into a permanent resident through refugee or asylee status.

  5. Nonimmigrant Status People living and working in the United States on a temporary basis are regarded as nonimmigrants. Some instances of people with nonimmigrant status could be those given temporary protected status, business visitors or tourists on B1 or B2 visas, fiancées on K-1 visas, and students on an F-1 visa.

  6. Undocumented This is the final one of the four categories of immigration status in the US. Who exactly are undocumented immigrants? They are people who get inside the United States without permission or enter through illegal methods, and in all such cases, they would not be able to stay in the country permanently or even temporarily.
