What is EB-3 Visa, and Who is It For?

The EB-3 Green Card is an employment-based permanent residency category. It is a third preference category for employment visas and is specifically for skilled, professional, or “unskilled” workers. With an EB-3 visa, you can work and live in the U.S. on a permanent basis.

• “Professionals” refers to those who hold a bachelor’s degree or its foreign equivalent.
• “Skilled” is translated as those who are experienced in working in a distinct occupation that requires at least two years of training.
• “Unskilled” subcategory is generally for individuals that have less than 2 years of work experience or vocational training.

The EB-3 Green Card is less rigid in qualifying requirements, but there are more eligible applicants compared to EB-1 and EB-2 categories. This visa is generally more suitable for foreign workers that have a permanent job offer in the U.S. while also meeting the work experience and educational requirements.
