Employment immigration
Permanent employment requires a genuine opportunity
EB-3 covers professionals, skilled workers and other workers. Most cases need a permanent full-time U.S. job offer and labor certification.
Professionals
Generally a qualifying bachelor’s degree.
Skilled workers
Generally at least two years of training or experience.
Other workers
Less than two years; own requirements apply.
Schedule A
Special procedures for certain occupations.
What to bring
Employer, position and minimum requirements, worker qualifications. Certain PERM costs cannot be shifted to the worker. We sell legal analysis, not a job or visa number.
Proposed legal fee
PERM $5,000–$8,000; I-140 $3,000–$5,000; Schedule A $5,000–$9,000. Government charges and screening are separate.
Is an employer’s promise enough?
No. The actual role, employer capacity, qualifications and filings must support the case.
