The I-140 Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers is a fundamental step for foreign nationals seeking employment-based permanent residency in the United States. It allows U.S. employers to sponsor foreign workers for green cards under various employment-based categories, ensuring that businesses can bring in the talent they need from around the globe.
Key Employment-Based Categories
The I-140 petition encompasses several employment-based categories. The EB-1 category targets individuals with extraordinary ability in fields such as sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics, as well as outstanding professors, researchers, and multinational managers. For those with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities, the EB-2 category is the appropriate path. This category also includes the National Interest Waiver (NIW), which is for those whose work is deemed to benefit the United States significantly. The EB-3 category covers skilled workers with at least two years of training or experience, professionals with a bachelor’s degree, and unskilled workers.
The Petition Process
The process begins with labor certification (PERM) for most EB-2 and EB-3 categories. This step requires the employer to prove that no qualified U.S. workers are available for the position. Once this is established, the employer can file the I-140 petition, submitting Form I-140 along with evidence of the employee’s qualifications. Processing times for these petitions can vary based on the service center and the specific employment category. For those in need of quicker processing, a premium processing option is available for an additional fee, ensuring a decision within 15 calendar days.
