What is EB-3 Green Card?
The EB-3 Green Card is an employment-based immigrant visa for skilled workers, professionals, and other workers who are offered permanent employment in the United States. This category allows U.S. employers to sponsor foreign nationals when qualified U.S. workers are not available for the position.
The EB-3 category is one of the most commonly used employment-based Green Card options and is available to a wide range of occupations.
EB-3 Categories
The EB-3 visa is divided into three subcategories:
Skilled Workers
Jobs requiring at least two years of training or experience.
Professionals
Jobs requiring at least a U.S. bachelor’s degree or equivalent.
Other Workers (Unskilled Workers)
Jobs requiring less than two years of training or experience.
Each category requires employer sponsorship and labor certification.
