Do you think Beckham has a GC?

I was having this discussion today at work. Do you think he (and the missus/kids) have a GC or visa?

Any thoughts on what type/category?

Green Card. National Interest or Person of Exceptional Ability.

With the right qualifications/international reputation, you can go from zero to GC in less than 3 months.

Visa gets my vote.

Nope...we were sat next to Roger Daltrey at the US Embassy in London...May 1996...he was waiting for his visa interview along with everyone else.

They fall under EB1 if I am not mistaken, and will get a GC within a few months.

If he gets a GC he has to pay US taxes. I wonder if he might play under some sportsman visa or something else.

"O" visa is what they get if they come and work here - extraordinary ability but not GC.

Maybe he has just overstayed and bought ID from some guy on the Cali border.
