Navigating Employment-Based Immigration in the U.S.

Are you an immigrant in the United States wondering about the possibility of applying for an employment-based visa while on a different visa status? Or are you curious about the potential of obtaining a green card through employment? If so, you've come to the right place. At Gurian Group, P.A., we assist individuals in Miami with their employment-based immigration matters. In this blog post, we will delve into these topics and provide you with valuable information to help guide you through the process.


One common question that immigrants often have is whether they can apply for an employment-based visa while in the U.S. on a different visa status. The short answer is yes, it is possible. However, there are certain requirements and procedures that must be followed. For example, if you are in the U.S. on a non-immigrant visa such as an H-1B or L-1 visa and your employer sponsors you for an employment-based green card, you can potentially adjust your status without having to leave the country. This process is known as "concurrent filing" and allows individuals to streamline their path to permanent residency.


When it comes to applying for a green card through employment, there are several categories under which you may qualify. These include EB-1 (priority workers), EB-2 (professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability), and EB-3 (skilled workers, professionals, or other workers). Each category has its own set of requirements that must be met in order to qualify for a green card. Working with an experienced immigration attorney can help ensure that you meet all eligibility criteria and navigate the application process successfully.


At Gurian Group, P.A., we understand how daunting the immigration process can be, especially when it comes to matters related to employment-based visas and green cards.
