2019 has come to a close. A lot of immigration challenges have been developing over the last year or more, and things may seem difficult sometimes. How do we cope with these difficulties when working towards moving to the United States?

It can seem difficult sometimes, especially in this current political climate. Denials of visas have increased, as have requests for more evidence. Not all is lost, though. 

This week, host Kaushik Ranchod reflects upon 2019 and the changes that have come, he also talks about the importance of gratitude and being thankful what we have, and how that can have a positive effect on us.

When applying for a visa to enter or stay in the United States, there are a host of options. While the different visas are all distinct, some of them may seem very similar to each other, and choosing the right one is absolutely essential for the completion of a successful visa.

So what are the different visa options? What are the differences between the Immigrant and non-immigrant visas? 

In this episode, Kaushik Ranchod goes into some of the differences between the immigrant and non-immigrant visas, what will be required from a sponsor when they are utilized, and the difference between a change of status and consular processing.

The complexity of the immigration process can be daunting and confusing. There are a myriad of different options for those who are dreaming of making a new life in America. That complexity is only getting more intense in the current political climate, as laws continue to change and develop. Education about the process is a very important part of successfully moving to the United States.

Finding quality information about the immigration process can be difficult, however. The laws and processes are dynamic, and on top of that many sources of information do not give out education for free. While Kaushik has a business to run, he still believes that what you put into the world is what you get back, and the important thing is providing useful information to those who need it.
