Permanent Residency Through Employment

Our firm regularly prepares and submits EB-4 immigrant visa petitions on behalf of well-qualified clients. USCIS does not automatically approve these petitions, so proper preparation of all relevant information and supporting evidence is crucial.

Approximately 140,000 total employment-based immigrant visas are made available each year across employment-based preference categories. An immigrant visa may allow you to remain permanently in the United States after you obtain lawful permanent residency and are issued a Green Card.

An EB-4 employment-based immigrant visa is a fourth-preference petition for certain special immigrants. In many cases, an employer or qualifying organization submits Form I-360, Petition for Amerasian, Widow(er), or Special Immigrant. However, in certain circumstances, the applicant may be eligible to self-petition.

Please contact our office for more information about your specific EB-4 eligibility.

Should I Pursue an EB-4 Visa?

An EB-4 immigrant visa allows the holder to permanently work and reside in the United States. This is also known as an employment-based immigrant visa or employment-based green card.

The government refers to the EB-4 as one of the five employment-based immigrant visa preference categories.

The U.S. government has created a Special Immigrants category for certain individuals who may be eligible for an EB-4 immigrant visa. These individuals may fall into one of the following categories:

Members of the United States Armed Forces

Afghan or Iraqi translators

Iraqi and Afghan employees of the United States

Religious workers

Special Immigrant Juveniles

Broadcasters

G-4 international organization retirees

Please contact our office for more information about the categories of individuals who may be eligible for the EB-4 immigrant visa.

Will my family also be granted admission to the United States?

The spouse and unmarried children under the age of 21 of an EB-4 visa holder may also be eligible for admission to the United States.

Eligibility for family members depends on the specific EB-4 category, visa availability, and the details of the case. Please contact us for more information to determine whether you and your family may qualify.
