The EB-3 Visa Program was created by Act of Congress in 1990. The primary intent of this employment-based Green Card option is to help U.S. employers find foreign workers who are qualified, available and willing to fill jobs the employers have been unable to fill with U.S. workers from their local job markets. In exchange for receiving and accepting a qualifying job offer from an authorized U.S. employer, the foreign worker and their immediate family members (their spouse and any unmarried children under 21 years of age) will all be able to receive their Green Cards and immigrate on a permanent resident basis to the United States. And after five years of residence here, they will each be eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship.
The EB-3 visa for unskilled or entry-level workers is one of three sub-categories found within the third-preference employment-based Green Card option. The “EB” in EB-3 stands for “employment based”. The other two sub-categories within the third-preference option are reserved for use by U.S. employers who are seeking either professional workers or highly skilled workers; but both of these immigrant visa options require much greater effort, time and expense on the part of the employer to obtain approval for from the U.S. Department of Labor, so we do not typically work with employers who are offering jobs in either of these employment categories. A summary of the EB-3 visa program for unskilled or entry-level workers can be found on the USCIS website at this link: USCIS (Employment-Based Visas)
Instead, we have developed relationships with dozens of U.S. employers who are each typically unable to find multiple workers for some of the entry-level or unskilled employment positions available within their respective companies. And as a result, we are able to help the foreign workers we source find job offers in many areas of the United States.
The EB-3 Visa Program
10,000 Green Cards are reserved for use each year by foreign workers who are willing to accept an offer of employment from the types of U.S. employers we work with; but due to the complexity and timing requirements associated with this type of permanent resident visa option, many of these visas are not used by these types of workers each year – and the unused visas in this category are frequently used to relieve backlogs that had previously accumulated for applicants from certain countries.
Due to the significant number of unused visas available in this employment-based Green Card category each year, literally thousands of opportunities exist annually for foreign workers who are available for this type of work to obtain Green Cards for themselves and their family members.
We hope you’ll soon be one of them!
