When you hear people talking about the American dream, It is because the United States of America is a land of many opportunities. United States of America is one of the most developed economy of the world and a choice destination for those who are looking for a better life away from their country.

After Donald Trump took over office as the president of the United States in 2016 one of his policies on immigration was the visa ban he placed on some countries for certain diplomatic reasons and unfortunately Nigeria was on that list.

On assumption of office recently as the president of the United States of America after defeating Donald Trump in the November 2020 presidential election, Joe Biden immediately lifted the visa embargo on some countries including Nigeria.


There are two basic pathways that any individual who intends to migrate to the United States of America irrespective of age can use and over time it has been proven to be the easiest with a very high percentage of visa guarantee.

But before I show you the secret let's look at the opportunities that you will have access to when you successfully migrate in to the United States of America.


America has what is called social security. Social security is system where by the government cater for the welfare of a certain class of people in the country. Basically there are four types of social security in the US; Retirement benefits, disability benefits, Benefits for spouses or other survivors of a family member who's passed away and lastly supplementary benefits.

The maximum monthly Social Security benefit that an individual can receive per month in 2021 is $3,895 for someone who files at age 70. For someone at full retirement age, the maximum amount is $3,113, and for someone aged 62, the maximum amount is $2,324. But this social welfare is exclusively reserved for citizens of the United States of America.

other social welfare in America includes; free food banks, for those who considered vulnerable in the society and so much more. America is just an ideal society for living.

THE TWO TYPES OF PATHWAYS THAT NIGERIANS CAN USE TO MIGRATE TO THE US EASILY ARE;

1.MIGRATION THROUGH EDUCATION.




alot of people especially Nigerians are of the opinion that education abroad is only meant for the rich but unfortunately thats not entirely true.


If you want to use the education pathway, then securing an admission in one of the numerous colleges and universities in the US is the first step. Check(educationUSA) Carry out a research on affordable schools in the United States and apply, while some of the application will demand an application fee others are free some even grant application fee waivers for international applicants.

When you secure the admission and you are buoyant enough to cater for the tuition fee the better but if not then search for scholarships and grants for international students.

The most interesting thing about securing admission in a US higher institution, is that, it is not mandatory for international students to pay tuition fee from their home country Untill they arrive America. So you don't have to worry about school fee payment while you are still in Nigeria.

Over time research has shown that Visa officers usually grant student visas more easily than other type of visas. The student visa which is either the F1 or J1 visa entitles you to work for 20 hours per week when school is on section and 40 hours during holidays for those who wish to work and support themselves while studying. After your studies you can apply for a resident permit if granted you will automatically be entitled to some benefits that the US citizens also get.

2.MIGRATION THROUGH MARRIAGE.

This method is less frequently used but it is the surest pathway to becoming a US citizen.

If you are lucky to meet a partner either through someone that lives in America or through the social media which is where many individuals started a relationship that led to marriage, then you are just a few steps away from becoming a US citizen.

After everything said and done and the marriage plans concluded, the other partner that lives in the US must travel down to Nigeria to complete the marriage rights and get legal marriage documents that will show that both couple are genuinely married.

On returning to the US, an application will be filed in the US office of immigration in the US and in few months, visa will be granted to the other spouse in Nigeria to move to the US to reunite with his or her partner. It is worthy to also note that as a result of the marrital union, you are now automatically a citizen of the United States by marriage and entitled to the social security benefits.

The benefits for spouses or other survivors whose family member has passed away is one of the most enjoyed social security that most migrants benefit from.

So if you decide to work in the US either in the private or public sector, you will enjoy all benefits that's accrued to a United States citizen as a result of the fact that your spouse is a citizen.
