Ways to gain citizenship or residency?


I remember watching a video about this subject. It presented many alternatives on how someone can gain legal entry to the United States as a citizen or legal resident. Question is what are the alternatives??? All I remember is that U.S. immigration awards random "people waiting in line" papers... like a lottery. If you know what this is called... please tell me. Thank You

Actually it is called the lottery. My husband is a foreign national here legally and I can remember sitting in the embassy in his birth country and reading papers about the lottery. I have met a couple of people that won the lottery and are here because of that. It is a game of chance. The supposedly choose at random and that person can come here. I'm not sure about family members though. I friend won the lottery and was granted a 5 year visitor visa to the US. His recently expired and he went back home and now wishes to return to the US. You can read about it on the immigration website.
