     Il existe plusieurs types de visas qui vous permettent de venir travailler aux États-Unis. Les visas basés sur l'emploi vous donnent la possibilité de vivre et de travailler aux États-Unis. Votre éducation, vos compétences et votre expérience sont quelques-uns des éléments utilisés pour déterminer qui peut prétendre à un visa basé sur l'emploi. L'un des visas "EB" auxquels de nombreuses personnes peuvent prétendre est le visa EB-3.  

     Le visa EB-3 est un visa basé sur l'emploi qui vous donnera une carte verte, c'est-à-dire la possibilité de vivre et de travailler aux États-Unis de manière permanente. Il existe trois catégories EB-3 distinctes, qui doivent toutes faire l'objet d'une procédure de certification de la main-d'œuvre, et une offre d'emploi permanent à temps plein est requise. Les trois catégories sont les suivantes

     EB-3 Travailleur qualifié - Vous devez prouver que vous avez au moins deux ans d'expérience professionnelle ou de formation et que vous effectuez un travail pour lequel il n'y a pas de travailleurs qualifiés aux États-Unis.  

     EB-3 Professionnel - Vous devez prouver que vous êtes titulaire d'une licence américaine ou d'un diplôme équivalent dans le domaine concerné et que vous effectuez un travail pour lequel il n'existe pas de travailleurs qualifiés aux États-Unis.

     EB-3 Travailleur Non Qualifié - Vous devez prouver que vous êtes capable d'effectuer un travail non qualifié qui n'est pas temporaire (ou saisonnier) et pour lequel il n'existe pas de travailleurs qualifiés aux États-Unis. 

     Comme indiqué, vous aurez besoin d'une offre d'emploi à temps plein et votre employeur devra obtenir une certification PERM/travail auprès du ministère américain du travail. Une fois cette première étape approuvée, ce qui prend généralement environ un an, les employeurs doivent déposer le formulaire I-140 auprès de l'USCIS, ce qui nécessite en moyenne six mois. 

     Enfin, lorsque l'USCIS approuve le formulaire I-140, vous, le ressortissant étranger, pouvez demander un visa d'immigrant ou un ajustement de statut et obtenir votre carte verte, ce qui requiert six mois supplémentaires, soit un total de deux ans en moyenne pour l'achèvement d'une procédure EB-3.

The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa Program has long stood as a beacon of opportunity for those seeking to establish roots in the United States. However, in recent years, its allure dimmed due to concerns surrounding integrity, program abuse, and uncertainties regarding its future. Yet, with the passage of the EB-5 Reform & Integrity Act of 2022 , the EB-5 program finds itself on the brink of a renaissance, once again capturing the attention of investors worldwide. For those unfamiliar, t he EB-5 program offers foreign investors and their families a pathway to permanent residency in the United States by investing a minimum amount in a qualifying U.S. business venture . This investment must create or preserve a certain number of jobs for American workers. Historically, the program has been popular among affluent individuals seeking not only residency but also the opportunity to contribute to the U.S. economy. However, in recent years, the program faced criticism and scrutiny due to allegations of fraud, abuse, and inefficiencies. Investors became wary, and the program's popularity waned. Prospective applicants were hesitant to commit significant funds to a program plagued by uncertainties and bureaucratic hurdles. Enter the 2022 EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act . This landmark legislation addresses many of the concerns that have plagued the program in recent years. Among its key provisions are increased investment thresholds, stricter oversight measures, and reforms aimed at promoting integrity and transparency within the program. One of the most significant changes introduced by the reform act is empowering the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to more effectively monitor and investigate potential instances of fraud or abuse. Additionally, the act introduces measures to streamline the application process, reducing bureaucratic red tape and expediting the adjudication of EB-5 petitions, resulting in faster processing for legitimate investments. The passage of the 2022 EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act has injected new life into the EB-5 program, reigniting interest among investors and immigration stakeholders alike. With its enhanced integrity measures and streamlined processes, the program once again represents a compelling opportunity for those seeking to pursue the American dream. Already, we are witnessing a resurgence of interest in the EB-5 program from investors worldwide. Developers and regional centers are seizing the opportunity to capitalize on the renewed enthusiasm, presenting a diverse array of investment opportunities across various industries and regions. Moreover, the EB-5 program's revitalization holds significant implications for the U.S. economy. By attracting foreign investment, the program has the potential to create jobs, spur economic growth, and facilitate the development of communities in need. Furthermore, it underscores the United States' commitment to welcoming and harnessing the talents and resources of immigrant investors. The passage of the 2022 EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act marks a pivotal moment in the history of the EB-5 program. By addressing longstanding concerns and implementing comprehensive reforms, the act has restored confidence in the program and positioned it for a prosperous future. As investors and developers alike embrace the opportunities presented by the revitalized EB-5 program, we anticipate a resurgence in interest and activity, reaffirming the program's status as a cornerstone of American immigration policy and economic development. I encourage any prospective investors to meet with one of our skilled attorneys to discuss the possibility of securing permanent residency, and eventually citizenship, through a qualifying investment under the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa Program. We look forward to working with you!

The latest policy alert, PA-2024-05, issued by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) on March 21, 2024, brings revisions to the USCIS Policy Manual, specifically focusing on expediting requests. These updates aim to simplify and elucidate the process for applicants, particularly those facing emergencies or urgent humanitarian needs. The primary goal is to make it easier for applicants to understand how to request expedited processing for their various submissions, including applications, petitions, appeals, or motions, especially in cases concerning government interests or urgent situations. While USCIS has historically permitted immigration benefit seekers to request expedited application processing in specific circumstances, the process has frequently been perceived as unclear, with decisions made arbitrarily on a case-by-case basis. The recent update seeks to rectify this by providing clarity and uniformity to the process and establishing explicit criteria and documentation standards. In order to request expedited processing, applicants need to adhere to a more defined procedure. This involves submitting thorough documentation and illustrating the urgency or government relevance of their case. The recent update also explains how USCIS reviews these requests, offering applicants a better grasp of the process. The update introduces special measures for speeding up the processing of Form I-131 (Application for Travel Document) in emergency situations. This acknowledges the urgent need for certain applicants to travel. The policy also acknowledges that expedited requests may be evaluated if there is evident USCIS error, aiming to uphold fairness and accountability within the processing system. These changes aim to make the expedited request process more transparent and understandable for applicants and their representatives. In summary, USCIS's revision regarding expedited requests signifies a notable advancement in rendering the immigration process more transparent and attentive to applicants' requirements. By comprehending these updated guidelines, applicants and their representatives can more effectively navigate the expedited request procedure, ensuring that urgent cases receive due consideration. If you believe you qualify for expedited processing under the recent USCIS policy updates, feel free to contact our office, and we will be more than happy to assist you.
