Hi Miguel,
First contact your employers and ask them if its
ok if you start the process on your own.If they agree,you
then ask them for a letter stating that you have been
working for the company for x amount of years.You then need
to gather all the necessary paper work( W2s,bills,letter
from employer)Then find your self a very good immigration
lawyer.After all your paper work is processed,you will
receive a temporary green card in a couple months.You will
receive your permanent green card in the next 2 years.

If you have any more questions please feel free to email me.
