Securing permanent residency in the United States is a life-changing goal for many foreign workers and their families. For individuals with valuable skills, professional experience, or specialized training, the EB-3 visa offers a clear path toward living and working in the U.S. on a permanent basis. Navigating this process, however, can be complex—requiring precise documentation, strict adherence to eligibility rules, and strategic legal guidance.

At Sintsirmas Immigration Law Co. LPA, our nationwide immigration attorneys help clients in all 50 states successfully pursue employment-based visas, including EB-3 applications. With decades of combined experience and a deep understanding of U.S. immigration regulations, we guide workers and employers through every step of the EB-3 process, ensuring a smooth and compliant application from beginning to end.

What Is the EB-3 Visa?

The EB-3 visa is an employment-based immigrant visa category that allows qualifying foreign nationals to obtain lawful permanent residence (a green card). This category applies to three primary groups:

✔ Skilled Workers

Individuals with at least two years of experience or training in their field.

✔ Professionals

Applicants holding a U.S. bachelor’s degree or foreign equivalent related to their occupation.

✔ Other Workers (Unskilled Labor)

Workers capable of performing unskilled labor, requiring less than two years of training or experience, when no U.S. workers are available.

Because this category covers a broad range of occupations—healthcare, construction, caregiving, business services, hospitality, and more—it is one of the most widely used pathways to permanent residency.

EB-3 Visa Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for an EB-3 visa, applicants must meet several key requirements:

1. A Permanent, Full-Time Job Offer

You must have a valid offer from a U.S. employer who is willing to sponsor you through the entire process.

2. Required Work Experience or Credentials

Depending on your EB-3 subcategory, you must show:

• At least two years of work experience or training (Skilled Workers)
• A bachelor’s degree or equivalent (Professionals)
• Ability to perform unskilled labor (Other Workers)

3. PERM Labor Certification

Your employer must obtain PERM approval from the U.S. Department of Labor, demonstrating:

• No qualified U.S. workers are available, willing, or able to fill the position
• Hiring you will not negatively impact U.S. wages or working conditions

This step requires exceptional accuracy and attention to detail—a process we handle for clients nationwide.

4. Proof of Qualifications

You must submit evidence such as:

• Work experience letters
• Educational credentials
• Certifications or licenses
• Relevant training records

Our attorneys help you gather and present the strongest documentation possible.
