Employment-Based Petition Overview

Employment-based green card petitions allow foreign nationals to obtain permanent residency in the United States through employment. These petitions are typically filed by an employer on behalf of an employee and are divided into several preference categories based on the worker’s qualifications, job offer, and the employer’s needs. 

The process involves a series of steps, including labor certification, filing a petition with USCIS, and adjustment of status or consular processing. 

An experienced immigration lawyer can guide both employers and employees through the complexities of the application process to ensure the best chance of approval.
