    What Greencard Pro Customers Are Saying

     I am pleased to write a review of my experience with Greencard Pro, who helped me get my green card. I discovered Greencard Pro with a web search and arranged an interview with [the Attorney], who quickly ascertained upon reviewing my CV that I wasting my time exploring an O-1 visa but rather I should be looking at the EB-1 category: Alien of Extraordinary Ability. Overall this is a great team who really know what they are doing. One cannot go wrong in using them for your visa needs.
