Employers seeking to sponsor

Employers from New Jersey seeking to hire Immigrant workers have always favoured the Non-immigrant route, which has its own challenges. They also require putting additional effort to ensure you remain compliant while the employee is in status. If you want to avoid all these hassles, an Employment-based Green card is a route you can consider. The various green card options available to employers are:

1. The EB-1B and EB-1C types of Green Cards under the EB-1 Category. EB-1B is best suited for educational institutions and organizations engaged in advanced scientific research, whereas any multinational corporation can use EB-1C to hire senior managers and executives.
2. EB-2 without National Interest Waiver is a type of Green Card that employers can use as an alternative to H-1B. Similar to H-1B, the employer must show USCIS, for EB-2 hiring without NIW, that the job requires an advanced degree (Master’s or higher) or a bachelor’s degree with at least 5 years of experience. Remember, the employer doesn’t need to show any explicit job-specific criteria beyond qualifications.
3. EB-3 is another category an employer can choose, covering all skilled workers, professionals, and other workers.
4. EB-4 is another category that employers can use to hire immigrant workers under specific special immigrant categories, such as religious workers, members of the U.S. armed forces, Certain Employees of the U.S. Government Abroad, and their family members.

Individuals seeking to self-petition them

Individuals from New Jersey under any non-immigrant visa status can self-petition for employment and get a Green Card. They don’t require an employer to sponsor them in this case. The various categories and visa types individuals can use are:

1. EB-1A under the EB-1 Employment Green Card category is for people with expertise in the sciences, arts, business, or athletics who are in the top tier of their field.
2. An EB-2 National Interest Waiver is a Green Card type that an individual can self-petition for if they have extraordinary skills and expertise of national importance.
3. EB-5 is a Green Card category that Individuals can self-petition for by making a qualifying investment in the country, commonly known as an investor visa.

Individuals seeking to petition their family member

Existing Green Card holders or US citizens seeking to bring their family members into the country can use the Family Green Card route. They can sponsor different types of family members, defined by your relationship with them and your current status.
If you are a U.S. citizen, you can sponsor your

• Unmarried Sons & Daughters aged 21 or above under the F1 Family preference Category
• Married Sons & Daughters under the F2 Family preference category
• Brothers and Sisters under the F4 Family preference category
• Spouse under the Immediate relative category
• Unmarried kids below 21 years of age under the Immediate relative category
