The United States of America is often called the land of opportunities, and it’s no surprise that millions of people around the world dream of living and working here. However, the US immigration process can be quite complex and challenging, with a lot of paperwork, procedures, and requirements to fulfill. As an immigrant, understanding the immigration process can be the key to achieving your American Dream.
"The immigration process may seem overwhelming, but with the right mindset and guidance, you can overcome any obstacle."
Juan F. Madrid
To be eligible for an employment-based nonimmigrant or immigrant visa, you must meet specific requirements. Our website provides detailed information on the requirements for each visa classification.
Once you’ve determined your eligibility, you’ll need to follow our application process. Depending on the visa category you’ve chosen, you may need to have a U.S. employer or other qualified requestor file an application or petition on your behalf. Alternatively, you may be eligible to self-petition for certain visa classifications.
At Impact Immigration, we understand that noncitizens come from diverse backgrounds and have different professional goals. That’s why we offer a range of employment-based nonimmigrant and immigrant visa classifications to meet your unique needs. Our visa classifications include:
Temporary (Nonimmigrant) Workers: This visa category is ideal for noncitizens who wish to work in the United States for a limited period. To apply for this visa, your prospective employer must file a petition with USCIS on your behalf.
Permanent Workers: This visa category is ideal for noncitizens who have the right combination of skills, education, and/or work experience to live and work permanently in the United States. The Permanent Workers webpage describes the five employment-based immigrant visa preferences, also known as categories.
STEM Employment Pathways: Are you an international student or a noncitizen with a degree in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM)? If yes, you may be eligible for STEM Employment Pathways, which offer opportunities for temporary and permanent work in the United States.
If you possess extraordinary abilities or belong to the category of outstanding professors, researchers, or multinational executives and managers, the EB-1 visa may be the right path for you. This visa allows individuals in these categories to petition for permanent residency without undergoing the time-consuming labor certification process. Our experienced attorneys can guide you through the application process, ensuring that your qualifications are properly showcased to maximize your chances of success.
The EB-2 visa is designed for individuals with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities in the fields of sciences, arts, or business. Generally, a job offer and completion of the labor certification process are required for this visa category. The labor certification involves demonstrating that the potential visa holder’s entry is not taking away a job opportunity from a U.S. worker. However, waivers for the job offer and labor certification requirements are possible if the individual can prove that their entry is in the nation’s interest. Our knowledgeable attorneys can assist you in navigating the complexities of the labor certification process and guide you towards a successful visa application.
If you are a skilled worker or professional with a job offer in the United States, the EB-3 visa may be the right choice for you. This visa category requires the completion of the labor certification process, which validates that there are no qualified U.S. workers available for the position. Our experienced attorneys can help you understand the requirements, gather the necessary documentation, and guide you through the application process to increase your chances of obtaining the EB-3 visa.
Religious workers, such as ministers, can be eligible for permanent residency under the EB-4 visa category. Additionally, certain other individuals, including special immigrant juveniles, NATO employees, and individuals who have assisted the U.S. in Iraq and Afghanistan, may also qualify for this visa. Our dedicated attorneys have extensive experience in handling EB-4 visa applications and can provide you with the legal representation you need to navigate the complex requirements of this visa category.

The H-2A program was created to address labor shortages in the agricultural sector by providing agricultural employers with access to a larger pool of workers. These workers, known as H-2A workers, are individuals who are not U.S. citizens but meet the necessary qualifications and regulatory requirements to perform the required duties.
The H-2B Visa is a temporary work permit designed for non-agricultural employment in the United States. Unlike the H-1B visa, which is reserved for highly skilled workers in “specialty occupations,” the H-2B visa caters to both skilled and unskilled workers.
Under the H-2B program, employers must provide an assurance to the Department of Labor that they will offer a wage that meets or exceeds the highest of the following: the prevailing wage, the federal minimum wage, the state minimum wage, or the local minimum wage for the H-2B nonimmigrant worker.
The H-3 nonimmigrant visa is a valuable option for individuals seeking temporary entry to the United States for specific purposes. It caters to two primary categories: Trainees looking to receive specialized training in fields other than graduate medical education, not accessible in their home country, and Special Education Exchange Visitors participating in programs that provide practical training and experience in educating children with physical, mental, or emotional disabilities. This visa pathway offers an excellent opportunity for personal and professional growth while fostering international exchange and expertise.
If you represent a foreign information media outlet, such as press, radio, film, or other foreign media, you may be eligible for the I nonimmigrant visa. This visa is designed for individuals who are coming to the United States solely to engage in their profession within the media industry and have a home office in a foreign country. Occupations covered under this category include reporters, film crews, editors, and similar roles. Additionally, the I visa allows for accompanying or joining spouses and children under the age of 21 to accompany or follow the primary I visa holder during their stay in the United States. It offers a great opportunity for media professionals and their families to work and experience life in the U.S. while contributing to international journalism and media exchange.

NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement, established special economic and trade ties between the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Through the TN nonimmigrant classification, qualified Canadian and Mexican citizens can seek temporary entry into the U.S. to engage in professional-level business activities. Various professionals, including accountants, engineers, lawyers, pharmacists, scientists, and teachers, are eligible for TN nonimmigrant status. To qualify, you must be a citizen of Canada or Mexico, have a profession that meets the regulations, secure a U.S. job that requires a NAFTA professional, and possess the necessary qualifications for the profession. Both full-time and part-time positions with U.S. employers are eligible, but self-employment does not apply under this category. If you meet these criteria, the TN visa offers an excellent opportunity to work temporarily in the United States and contribute your expertise to its vibrant professional landscape.

The R-1 nonimmigrant visa allows noncitizens to temporarily work in the United States, dedicating at least part-time hours (an average of 20 hours per week) to a role as a minister or in a religious vocation or occupation. Eligible candidates must be employed by one of the following: a non-profit religious organization in the U.S., a religious organization authorized by a group tax exemption holder, or a non-profit organization affiliated with a religious denomination in the United States. To qualify, individuals must have been a member of a religious denomination with a bona fide non-profit religious organization in the U.S. for a minimum of two years immediately prior to filing the petition. The R-1 visa offers a valuable opportunity for religious workers to contribute their expertise and fulfill their religious duties in the United States for a temporary period.
