It costs upwards to about $6,000 for a green card. However, it costs as low as $325 for a non-residential work visa. If one gets a work visa, gets a job, and saves as much money as possible, getting that $6,000 isn't very hard at all.
The problem is that many people think that they have to go right for the green card, and don't even consider work visas. They themselves don't put in the effort of researching the immigration process. All they know is the little bit they heard, which basically amounts to "Legally in America = green card = too expensive." Which not only is incorrect, but it's sadly repeated by Americans as well because
they don't do the research, either.
