I don't have an Immigrant Visa as of yet, I'm simply preparing myself. What type of Immigrant Visas are there?

Is your purpose "to visit" or is your purpose "to work?"

My purpose is to immigrate and live with my husband, although I would enjoy being able to work if I'm only allowed to visit. I enjoy working and would like to work during my visits if visiting is my only option.

I suggest that you and your husband

They will explain how he can petition for you to come to the States as his spouse, and the end result for you will be an immigrant visa. When that visa is activated at a POE, you will get a green card that allows you to reside and work in the States.

Buena suerte!

An Immigrant Visa gives you Permanent Resident status when you enter the US. A Green Card is simply proof that you are a Permanent Resident (it's actually called a Permanent Resident Card).

Permanent Resident status gives you permission to live and work indefinately in the US. It also allows you to travel without additional permits.

You can read more about Permanent Resident status and what happens after you enter with an Immigrant Visa here:

If you have a genuine marriage you don't need to worry about them denying you a greencard... but before you can get one you have to have a visa to get into the US.

If you have a genuine marriage you don't need to worry about them denying you a greencard... but before you can get one you have to have a visa to get into the US.

The reason I'm worrying about them denying me a greencard is because of this:

This is my case:

Warning to Alien Ordered Removed or Deported

In accordance with the provisions of section 212(a)(9) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (Act), you are prohibited from entering, attempting to enter, or being in the United States:

At any time because you have been found inadmissible or excludable under section 212 of the Act, or deportable under section 241 or 237 of the Act, and ordered deported or removed from the United States, and you have been convicted or a crime designated as an aggravated felony.

AND

That was a little over a year ago, my then-boyfriend who’s a USC came to my country after I got deported and married me 10 months ago.

Does having a genuine marriage still apply in this case when it comes to obtaining my Green Card?

You need to ask these questions to a good immigration lawyer.... you may find you are banned for life...
