Employment Based


EB1

You may be eligible for an employment-based, first-preference visa if you are an alien of extraordinary ability, are an outstanding professor or researcher, or are a certain multinational executive or manager.

 

EB5

This preference is for employment creation-investor visas. It provides conditional residency for those who invest $1.8 million in a new commercial enterprise that employs at least 10 full time US workers. A lesser investment of $700,00 may qualify the investor if the investment is in one of the targeted employment areas. These include rural areas with population of less than 20,000 or locations that have experienced unemployment at 150% of the national average.

Applying for a U.S. Green Card
