Assistance with Your Employment-Based Green Card in Calgary, AB

Green Card for Employment-Based Immigrants

In the United States, immigrants have the opportunity to obtain lawful permanent residency through various employment-based immigration categories. Referred to as a “green card,” this legal status allows individuals to live and work permanently in the U.S. There are different preference categories, including EB1, EB2, and EB3, each designed for specific types of workers. The EB1 category is for individuals with extraordinary abilities, such as outstanding researchers, professors, or multinational executives. The EB2 category is tailored for professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities in their field, including those in the National Interest Waiver (NIW) category. Lastly, the EB3 category is for skilled workers, professionals, and other workers with less advanced qualifications. These categories provide opportunities for immigrants to contribute their unique skills and expertise to the U.S. workforce.

There are two additional categories reserved for special situations such as religious workers, investors government employers and their families, and certain practicing physicians. Let the experts at Pilkington Immigration – Calgary assist you with filing your application.

The Employment Green Card Process

However, there are limited exceptions to this requirement.
