What Is an Employment-Based Green Card?
A Permanent Employment-Based Green Card allows a foreign national to live and work permanently in the United States. These green cards are granted through employer sponsorship or, in some cases, self-petition when the applicant meets certain criteria (such as national interest).
The U.S. offers several employment-based (EB) categories, each with its own eligibility requirements and procedural nuances. Most categories involve a multi-stage process that includes Labor Certification, Immigrant Petition (Form I-140), and Adjustment of Status or Consular Processing.
The number of available avenues can often feel disorientating. That’s why the highly experienced team at BPA Immigration Lawyers U.S. provides end-to-end representation, from PERM to green card approval, for both employers and foreign nationals across all major EB categories.
Our Services: Employment-Based Green Cards
We offer comprehensive immigration representation across the full spectrum of employment-based green card categories:
EB-1: Priority Workers
Reserved for individuals with extraordinary ability, outstanding professors or researchers, and multinational executives or managers.
- Extraordinary Ability (EB-1A): No job offeror PERM required; self-petition is possible.
- Outstanding Professors/Researchers (EB-1B): Requires a permanent job offer and proof of international recognition.
- Multinational Executives/Managers (EB-1C): Often ideal for L-1 visa holders seeking permanent status.
In these cases, we can secure you an attorney with an impressive depth of experience in EB-1 preparation. They can then craft persuasive evidence portfolios, demonstrate eligibility across required criteria, and manage the petition process with thorough legal analysis and narrative strength.
EB-2: Advanced Degree Professionals & National Interest Waivers
This category is for individuals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability in the sciences, arts, or business.
- PERM-Based EB-2: Requires sponsorship from an employer alongside labor certification.
- National Interest Waiver (NIW): Allows a waiver of the job offer requirement if the applicant’s work significantly benefits the U.S.
When it comes to EB-2 applications, BPA Immigration Lawyers U.S. can assist employers with PERM certification and offer tailored guidance to professionals applying under the NIW route, helping them present compelling arguments for national interest.
EB-3: Skilled Workers, Professionals, and Other Workers
These apply to positions requiring at least two years’ experience or a degree, and are often used in healthcare, technology, education, and trades. They are often taken up by:
- Skilled Workers: Jobs requiring two years of training or experience.
- Professionals: Positions requiring a U.S. bachelor’s degree or foreign equivalent.
- Other Workers: Unskilled labor requiring under two years’ experience.
Looking for step-by-step support in navigating the PERM process? Trust BPA’s attorneys to help you seamlessly ensure compliance with wage, recruitment, and documentation requirements to avoid costly delays.
EB-4 & EB-5 Categories
Finally, there are the less common EB-4 and EB-5 schemes, which apply to:
- EB-4: Religious workers, broadcasters, and certain special immigrants.
- EB-5: Investors seeking green cards through job-creating investments (see our dedicated Investor & Entrepreneur Visas page for more details).
