Background
The EB-3 visa is designed to attract foreign workers to the United States. It is suitable for professionals, skilled workers, and unskilled workers. Compared to similar visas, such as the EB-1 and EB-2 visas, the EB-3 visa offers a more accessible option for individuals who may not have advanced degrees or extraordinary abilities. While the EB-1 visa caters to individuals with exceptional talents in their fields, and the EB-2 visa is for professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities, the EB-3 visa acknowledges the importance of skilled workers in various industries. It recognizes that the contributions of professionals, skilled workers, and unskilled workers are vital to the growth and development of the U.S. economy, offering them a chance to obtain permanent residency and pursue their careers in the United States.
VisaNation Case Strategy
Our client was going to be working as an Application Software Developer under Computer Software Development services. However, there was an issue with our client’s previous areas of employment as USCIS sent a Request for Evidence (RFE) claiming that it wasn’t acceptable as one of the alternate occupations to the job offered in the U.S. Our firm needed to explain how our client’s history and experience within web programming applied to his new job in Computer Software Development services. We noted that developers and software engineers were also programmers, as they had similar job responsibilities of software design, development, research, maintenance, etc.
The titles of a software developer, engineer, developer, and programmer could all potentially refer to the same job.
With an EB-3 visa, you need to be a skilled worker or a professional worker. In our client’s case, he held a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and had over 24 months of experience in the field. He was qualified as a skilled worker.
Verdict
Upon our submission of the RFE response, our client’s EB3 was approved!
