In light of ongoing changes in U.S. immigration policies, experts suggest that pursuing Permanent Residence (Green Card) through Labor Certification under the EB-2 and EB-3 categories is a prudent strategy for foreign workers. This pathway continues to offer stability and predictability for those seeking to secure their residency status in the United States.
Key Details:
- Categories: EB-2 for professionals with advanced degrees or equivalent experience; EB-3 for professionals with a bachelor’s degree, skilled workers, and qualified employees.
- Process: Employers must obtain PERM labor certification from the Department of Labor, demonstrating that no qualified U.S. workers are available for the position before filing a petition with USCIS.
- Benefits: Allows for permanent residence through stable employment; does not require a university degree for all applicants; spouses and children under 21 can obtain permanent residence alongside the principal beneficiary.
- Visa Bulletin: Expected to continue advancing, potentially improving prospects for current and future applicants.
This reliable option requires careful planning and patience, making it particularly suitable for those already employed in the U.S. with employer support.
