EB-3 Program Overview
What Is the EB-3 Visa Program?
The EB-3 Visa Program, created in 1990, allows U.S. employers to sponsor motivated foreign nationals for essential work positions where qualified U.S. workers are unavailable.
Through this legal pathway, employers gain access to committed workers who become valuable long-term assets to your business and community.
The EB-3 visa program brings motivated, committed workers to your business, legally, affordably, and with a full guarantee.
EB-3 Worker Advantages
Loyal & Committed
Employees typically commit to a minimum of 12 months. Maintaining good standing helps ensure a smooth immigration process
Highly Motivated
They've waited years for this opportunity. They show up, work hard, and appreciate the chance to build their American dream.
Lower Turnover
3x longer retention than traditional hires. Say goodbye to "Monday hires, Thursday quits" and wondering who will show up for work.
Cost-Effective
Extremely competitive employee acquisition costs compared to temp workers and traditional hiring methods
You Approve Everyone
Meet and interview every candidate before sponsorship. No blind placements, ever. You choose the right fit for your team.
100% Legal
Fully compliant federal program. Zero legal risk. Full transparency at every step.
How the EB-3 Program Works
Meet and interview every candidate before sponsorship. No blind placements, ever. Total Timeline: ~36-48 months from start to worker arrival.
We verify your business qualifies for the EB-3 program and determine
how many positions you can sponsor.
We source, screen, and present qualified candidates for your approval
via video interviews.
1. Our legal partners file with the Department of Labor to verify no
qualified U.S. workers are available.
2. Once PERM is approved, we file the I-140 petition with USCIS to
sponsor your approved workers.
3. Workers complete visa interviews at U.S. embassies and receive
final approval to enter the United States.
Workers arrive in the U.S. and begin employment with your company.
We provide ongoing support.
