The EB-3 Unskilled Worker Visa gives you a direct path to a U.S. Green Card — no college degree or specialized experience required.
The EB-3 Unskilled Worker Visa is an employment-based immigrant visa that leads directly to a U.S. Green Card — permanent residency. It is specifically designed for foreign nationals who want to fill entry-level, full-time positions in the United States where there is a documented shortage of available American workers.
The “unskilled” category means no prior education or work experience is required. What is required is your willingness to work full-time and your eligibility under U.S. immigration law.
Each year, the U.S. government allocates up to 10,000 visas for unskilled positions in this category. A U.S. employer must sponsor you — and that employer must go through a certified process with the Department of Labor to prove that no qualified American workers were available for the position.
At EZ Visa, we guide you through every step of this process, working alongside our network of experienced immigration attorneys and certified employer sponsors.
You may be eligible if:
You can apply from abroad (Consular Processing) OR from within the U.S. (Adjustment of Status) if you are currently in valid immigration status.
We assess your eligibility and walk you through the full process, timelines, and what to expect before you commit to anything.
We connect you with pre-vetted, certified U.S. employers in industries such as food service, hospitality, warehousing, and manufacturing — employers who are ready and qualified to sponsor your Green Card.
Your sponsoring employer files a labor certification with the Department of Labor (DOL), demonstrating that no qualified American workers were available for the position.
Once the labor certification is approved, your employer files Form I-140 (Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers) with USCIS on your behalf.
Depending on whether you are inside or outside the U.S., you will either file for Adjustment of Status (Form I-485) or go through Consular Processing at a U.S. Embassy in your home country.
Our team and our network of immigration attorneys prepare you for your USCIS interview or consular interview — with personalized coaching to give you the best possible chance of approval.
Once approved, you receive your Permanent Resident Card (Green Card) and can live and work freely in the United States.
This is a multi-year process.
The EB-3 Unskilled Visa process typically takes several years from start to finish. It requires genuine commitment from both the applicant and the sponsoring employer. We will give you a realistic timeline estimate based on your specific situation during the Profile Evaluation.
The first step is a Profile Evaluation. We'll tell you honestly if you qualify, what the process looks like for your specific situation, and what to expect every step of the way.
