Also, a Labor Condition Application is required and the prevailing wage must be paid. And like the H-1B, E-3s are limited in number. However, the quota of 10,000 per year has not been reached in the past. Unlike the H-1B (and like the E-1 and E-2) there is no limit on the number of years an E-3 can hold E-3 status. Note that premium processing is not yet available for those seeking to change to E-3 status from within the US.

This list is not an exclusive list of all the non-immigrant visas. Currently there are over 25 major non-immigrant visa classifications and the above discussion includes only the most common ones.

2. IMMIGRANT VISAS (“GREEN CARD”)

There are four (4) basic categories of immigrant visas:

1. Family sponsored immigrants

4. Refugees and Asylees

 

Family Sponsored Immigrants

  1. Immediate relatives – no quotas, faster processing
    • Are you a spouse of a US citizen?
    • Are you a child under 21 years old of a US citizen?
    • Are you the parent of a US citizen over the age of 21?
  2. Preference categories*
    • First Preference – Are you the adult unmarried child of a US citizen? Wait: eight years (or more for the nationals of Mexico and Philippines)
    • Second Preference A – Are you the under 21 child of a green card holder or the spouse of a green card holder?

*The above waiting periods are based on the US Department of State’s Visa Bulletin published in April 2015. The US DOS publishes the Bulletin monthly and announces the current waiting periods therein. The above periods should be considered as estimates and for accurate waiting periods, the current Visa Bulletin must be checked.

General Notes: Must file petition with the USCIS to get a place in the queue; marriage to a US citizen is scrutinized to make sure the marriage is genuine; petitions based on green card holder automatically switch to higher preference category when the green card holder becomes a citizen; cases may convert automatically from one category to another when a person’s age and marital status change; certain rights and priority dates may be retained for children when they turn 21. The Visa Bulletin can be found at:
http:// travel.state.gov.

 

DV Visas – Green Card Lottery

EB-2 – Members of the Professions Holding Advance Degrees or People With Exceptional Ability

  1. Do you have a degree beyond a bachelor’s degree or do you have a bachelor’s degree plus five years of work experience in your field?

  5. If your claim is based on a labor certification, are you going to be paid the prevailing wage for similarly employed workers in the city where you are going to work?
  6. If your claim is based on a labor certification, has your employer attempted to recruit workers to fill the position?
  7. If your claim is based on a national interest waiver, do you meet the following tests?:
    • The person seeks employment in an area of substantial intrinsic merit
    • The benefit will be national in scope

General Notes: Processing times vary but labor certification cases typically take one to two years and national interest cases take six months to a year and a half; Employer not required in national interest waiver cases; multiyear backlogs for Indian and Chinese nationals; for labor certification-based cases, employer required to pay costs associated with labor certification.

 

EB-3 – Skilled Workers, Professionals and Other Workers

General Notes: Available to university graduates and people working in jobs requiring a worker with at least two years experience can file this category if the employer gets a labor certification (see above). There is a sub-category for unskilled workers that does not have a work experience or education requirement, but still requires a labor certification. The EB-3 category is backlogged for multiple years for all nationalities; for labor certification-based cases, employer required to pay costs associated with labor certification.

 

EB-4 – Special Immigrants – Religious Workers

General Notes: Basically the same requirements as the R-1 religious worker non-immigrant category except that the applicant must have been working in the field for at least a two year period. No backlogs in this category as of early 2015.

 

EB-5 – Investor Employment Creation Visa

  1. Are you investing in a business in the US?
  2. Is the business new or are you buying into a restructured business?

  5. Is the investment “at risk”?
  6. Can you document that the source of the funds is legitimate?
  7. Will the investment result in the creation of at least ten full-time jobs for American workers?

 

General Notes: The USCIS scrutinizes these cases carefully. While technically the investment and job creation need not take place until after granting the green card, in practice, the USCIS will deny unless the investment and job creation take place before the application was submitted. Applicants can avoid having to show direct job creation by investing in a pre-approved regional investment center. Applicants applying through regional centers also do not need to show they are involved in management. DOS is reporting that backlogs for Chinese nationals are likely by June 2015.

3. ASYLEES AND OTHER SPECIAL GROUPS

There are certain protected groups of aliens in the US. Most common are the asylee and refugees. Under the 1980 Refugee Act, a refugee is defined as “any person who is outside of any country of such person’s nationality . . . who is unable or unwilling to return to, and is unable or unwilling to avail himself or herself of the protection of that country because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.”

Both refugees and asylees must satisfy this definition. Indeed, in almost every way, the requirements for refugee status and asylum are the same. The most important difference is that an asylee makes their application while in the US, while the refugee applies outside of their home country, but also outside of the US.

Asylees and refugees are eligible for employment authorization and have special paths to permanent residency.

President Obama created a new discretionary program in 2012 aimed at young undocumented immigrants who arrived as children. The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program is available to those who were in the US on June 15, 2012, were under the age of 16 on that date, have been in the US for at least five years, who are under 31 on June 15, 2012, who are in school or have a high school or college degree, GED, or an honorable discharge from the Armed Forces and have no criminal history. The program is extended in two-year increments and was recently extended until 2016.

In November 2014, President Obama announced a major expansion of the DACA program to remove the cutoff age and allow those who entered before 2010 (rather than 2007) the opportunity to apply. He also announced a new program called DAPA that would allow parents of US citizens and permanent residents to apply for a similar benefit. Those programs were to take effect in the spring of 2015 but are currently on hold due to court actions.

There are other protected groups like the TPS (temporarily protected status) aliens available to people from countries facing war, disaster, etc. More more information about these special groups and others may be found at our website http://visalaw.wpengine.com/abcs.html.

 

4. US CITIZENS

US Citizenship can be obtained in multiple ways including the following:

  1. Birth in the US or certain US territories
  2. Birth outside the US to a US citizen parent (note that various complex residency and physical presence requirements for both parent and child likely apply)
  3. Naturalization or naturalization of parent when child is under 18 at time of parent’s naturalization

 

Naturalization requirements:

  1. Lawful permanent resident for five years (or three years if married to a US citizen and couple is together for the three years)
  2. Three months residence in state where application filed
  3. Present in the US for half of the required 5 or 3 year residency period.
  4. Continuous residency in the US (breaks of 6 months to a year presumed to break residency; breaks of more than a year mean 5/3 year residency period starts over).
  5. Residency exceptions for members of military and their dependents, employees working abroad for US employers and spouses of US citizens working abroad for US employers.
  6. Good moral character for required residency period.
  7. Able to pass test of English, US history and US government (exceptions based on age/medical disability)
