Yes, I read those word legal in your post. I use "illegal"
I mean, a person who is not recongized to be legal immigrant yet until she/he want to be legal immigrant then she/he will get a green card (work permit) and residence permit.
Example:
If I want to be legal immigrant in your country few days before 90 days without visa but application to be legal immigrant including work/residence permit are not being recognize yet until application of legal immigrant with work/residence permit is finally recognition then I am official legal immigrant. Understand what I am trying to explain?
If your application is not approved before your 90 days runs out, then you either probably would have to leave the USA, and then continue your application from Germany, OR they might let you extend your stay on a different kind of visa in the meantime. That is, you might be able to extend your tourist visa while you wait but you wouldn't be allowed to work and earn money while waiting. I don't know all the technical rules for each scenario.
If they do not recognize me as legal immigrant in their country then I have to follow what the visa says. (accord America law, I am allow to stay in America up to 90 days without visa then go back to my country but no work etc). If I want to stay longer than 90 days then apply for visa.
That sounds right. I know that there are many German people working legally in the USA, so it seems the USA is pretty much open for German immigration.
I am not sure either I understand you correct... I guess our system is different.
Yes, the systems are different.
Do you mean that a person who want to be legal immigrate then recognize be legal immigrate without get a green card (work/residence permit) and then apply extra for work/residence permit?
There's a difference between people who are seeking
temporary work permits, and people who want to move to the USA
permanently. For example, suppose a German engineer wants to work in the USA for two years while setting up a new production system for Bosch in South Carolina. If he gets the visa, it's very specific for two years, and for Bosch work only. After the two years, he has to move back to Germany.
But suppose he changes his mind and wants to move to the USA permanently? That's a different kind of application. If he gets approved, he can move to the USA, and work for whatever company he wants. He will need a green card and residency card for the specific state in which he lives. If he moves to another state, he needs to reapply for new cards.
If he wants to become a USA citizen, then that's an additional process, and that has minimum time requirements, and a test that must be passed.
These are just general explanations. There are more details here:
