How to Work in America

If you’re a foreign applicant looking for a job, USA visa regulations may seem a bit daunting. For example, employment-based visas are broken down into five categories (EB-1-EB-5) ranked in order of preference. Global Visas will ensure you have all the background information you need when applying for jobs in the United States, including:
  • Which visas are dependent on first obtaining a job offer from a US employer/sponsor
  • What requirements USCIS (US Citizenship and Immigration Services) puts on sponsoring employers
  • The role of the US Department of Labor (DOL) in granting or refusing certification as part of an immigration petition.
We’ll also explain the tax obligations for foreigners obtaining jobs in United States companies.

A Wide Range of United States Jobs

The jobs America opens up to overseas workers range from unskilled work to specialist roles for highly qualified professionals. Global Visas can guide you towards the most suitable visa preference category, increasing your chances of a successful application:
  • First Preference Category (EB-1) is for priority workers and comprises three sub-categories: extraordinary ability; outstanding professors and researchers; multinational manager or executive. None of these categories require certification from the DOL.
  • Second Preference Category (EB-2) is for those with exceptional ability in arts, science and business. The sub-categories are: advanced degree; exceptional ability; and national interest waiver. No sponsor or DOL certification is required in the third category if applicants can prove that their employment benefits the nation.
  • Third Preference Category (EB-3) is broader, encompassing professionals with a baccalaureate degree, skilled and unskilled workers. Applicants will require DOL certification as well as permanent, full-time offer of employment.
  • Fourth Preference Category (EB-4) covers special immigrants, including religious workers, broadcasters and some translators.
  • Fifth Preference Category (EB-5) is administered by USCIS to encourage job creation by foreign investors. To obtain an investor visa, applicants will have to put at least US $500,000 into a new commercial enterprise.
