What is the EB-3 Visa?
Three Paths to U.S. Permanent Residency
The Employment-Based Third Preference (EB-3) visa grants U.S. permanent residency (a Green Card) to foreign nationals sponsored by a U.S. employer. We cater to all three eligible categories.
Skilled Workers
For those whose jobs require a minimum of 2 years of training or relevant experience.
Common Roles
Unskilled / Other Workers
For individuals capable of performing unskilled labor requiring less than 2 years of training.
Common Roles
The Upshift Process
A Clear Path from Application to Arrival
Navigating U.S. immigration is complex. We simplify it by guiding you and your future employer through every bureaucratic step.
Evaluation & Pre-screening
Complete our free assessment. We evaluate your background, skills, and qualifications against current U.S. employer demands.
Employer Matching
Once pre-approved, we match you with a verified U.S. sponsor actively seeking foreign talent to fill labor shortages.
Labor Certification (PERM)
Your matched employer files a PERM application with the Department of Labor, proving no qualified U.S. workers are available.
Visa Petition (I-140)
Upon PERM approval, the employer submits the I-140 Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker to USCIS.
Green Card & Arrival
After I-140 approval, apply for a visa at the consulate (or adjust status if in the U.S.). Welcome to America!
