Immigrant Visas

Employment Based Immigrant Visas

The Immigration and Nationality Act provides a yearly limit of 140,000 employment-based immigrant visas, which are divided into five preference categories. They usually require a labor certification from the US Department of Labor (DOL) and the filing of a petition with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
