Employment Based Immigration

South Florida immigration attorney Jorge Delgado can advise you with your employment based immigration petition based on the following types of situation:

Labor Certification

Labor Certification is the process of demonstrating to the Department of Labor and the USCIS that the applicant should receive an Immigrant Visa due to the fact that he or she is or will be employed in a geographical area where there are no US Citizens or legal residents qualified for or willing to work in a determined position. The categories of workers are:

• “Skilled workers” are persons whose job requires a minimum of 2 years training or work experience, not of a temporary or seasonal nature
• “Professionals” are persons whose job requires at least a U.S. baccalaureate degree or a foreign equivalent and are a member of the professions
• The “other workers” subcategory is for persons performing unskilled labor requiring less than 2 years training or experience, not of a temporary or seasonal nature.

Individuals with extraordinary abilities, researches, high executives

Persons with extraordinary abilities in the Arts, Sciences, Sports, Business, or Education may apply for Permanent Residence if they can clearly show that they are internationally known for their achievements in their respective areas. This category may include beneficiaries of L and O visas. They include:

• EB1 (extraordinary ability, are an outstanding professor or researcher, or are a multinational executive or manager.)
• EB2 (member of the professions holding an advanced degree or its equivalent, or a foreign national who has exceptional ability)
