“Of course legal immigrants register when they enter the country for the first time. This is how they get a Green card.”
Actually and specifically, we got our green cards NOT in the US but outside before entering. I got mine in Montreal which is retarded when I;m from Vancouver, and we have our own US embassy there.
I got mine after our plane landed and we got of the plane at McQuire Airforce Base. My husband, who was born and raised in Upstate New York was transferred to the States. You probably got yours in Montreal, because it is closer than Frankfurt Germany from where our plane left, and you probably did not need a Visa. I did, and I had one which was issued to me from the American Consulate in Munich, Germany. After I turned my visa in, I got my green card
That's not possible. A consulate, perhaps. Embassies only exist in the Capital of a country.
