    What Is an EB-3 Visa?

    U.S. immigration has an EB-3 visa category for employment-based visas. An EB3 visa is designed to help U.S. employers fill labor shortages by allowing them to hire qualified foreign workers when no sufficient, competent, and willing U.S. workers are available for the positions.

    This category ensures that the U.S. labor market stays competitive and meets economic demands. Whether you’re a worker with skills in computer technology or cooking, or have expertise in professions like engineering, teaching, or accounting and finance, you may be eligible to live and work in the United States with an EB-3 visa.

    What Documentation is Required for EB-3 Visa Categories?

    EB-3 visa documentation requirements vary by subcategory. The general documentation may include your passport, applicant information, medical examination, vaccination records and evidence of your financial support. Labor certification is required, which needs to be approved by the Department of Labor (DOL) for all three categories of EB-3 visa. Required documents for the EB-3 visa application for each subcategory may include:

    • Skilled workers. At least two years of training or work experience, job offer letter from your U.S. employer, letters from your previous employers verifying your work experience and Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker
    • Copies of your academic degrees, academic transcripts, credential evaluations if the degree is from a foreign institution and Form I-140 filed by your U.S. employer with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
    • Unskilled workers. An approved labor certification, job offer letter and your certificates of any relevant training

    You may receive a Request for Evidence (RFE) from USCIS if your application doesn’t contain sufficient documentation. RFEs can delay the processing of your visa application. You must respond timely to RFEs by providing the requested documentation. An immigration attorney prepares a response to address USCIS’s concerns and strengthen your application.
