USA Visa

Employment-Based Immigration Third Preference (EB-3) | International Consulting Services (ICS)

At International Consulting Services (ICS), we provide comprehensive assistance for applicants seeking the EB-3 employment-based permanent residency visa for the United States. The EB-3 program enables qualified foreign workers to secure U.S. residency through employment sponsorship when local candidates with the necessary skills are unavailable.

What is the EB-3 Visa?

The EB-3 Visa is a U.S. employment-based green card for overseas workers in three main categories:

  1. Skilled Workers: Applicants must have at least two years of training or experience in a specialized field where local talent is not available.
  2. Professionals: Requires at least a bachelor’s degree from a U.S. or foreign institution, proving skills that cannot be substituted by experience.
  3. Unskilled Workers: Intended for roles needing less than two years of training or experience, excluding temporary or seasonal positions.

Key Requirements and Steps for the EB-3 Visa

Employer Sponsorship and PERM Certification

A U.S. employer must sponsor the foreign worker for permanent employment and obtain PERM (Program Electronic Review Management) certification, verifying that hiring a foreign worker will not impact U.S. labor wages or job availability.

Documentation and Application Process

The EB-3 application process involves:

  • Filing Form I-140 (Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker): This form, completed by the U.S. employer, is crucial to establish that the job offer is permanent and suitable.
  • Adjustment of Status or Consular Processing: Once a visa number is available, applicants already in the U.S. can file Form I-485 for status adjustment, while those abroad may apply through consular processing.
  • Supporting Documentation: ICS will assist in preparing forms such as:
    • I-765 (Employment Authorization)
    • I-131 (Travel Document)
    • G-325A (Biographic Information)
