USCIS Details Five Green Card Categories for Workers
The Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has outlined five employment-based categories through which foreign nationals can obtain lawful permanent residence, commonly known as a Green Card. The categories include: 1.
EB-1, targeting priority workers with extraordinary abilities in various fields, including sciences and arts; 2. EB-2, designed for professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities, allowing for a national interest waiver; 3.
EB-3, covering skilled workers, professionals with bachelor's degrees, and unskilled laborers; 4. EB-4, catering to special immigrants such as religious workers and certain Iraqi and Afghan nationals; 5.
EB-5, aimed at immigrant investors willing to invest significantly in new commercial enterprises. Each category has specific requirements and may vary in availability based on annual visa limits and the applicant's country of birth.
USCIS advises prospective applicants to review the requirements carefully before applying.
