In brief

EB-3 Other Workers, explained

EB-3 Other Workers, often called EB-3 unskilled, is a U.S. employment-based green card category for permanent, full-time jobs that need less than two years of training or experience. A U.S. employer offers the job and sponsors the worker, and the worker's spouse and unmarried children under 21 receive green cards too.

  • No degree or English test is required by law; the employer sets the job requirements.
  • The employer pays for PERM labor certification, as required by 20 CFR 656.12.
  • Four stages: employer offer, PERM labor certification, Form I-140, then the immigrant visa or adjustment of status.
  • Waiting time depends on country of birth. Taiwan- and Hong Kong-born applicants use the worldwide dates (January 1, 2022 in October 2026); mainland China's date is October 1, 2019.
  • Typical total time for a new case started in 2026: roughly 4 to 6 years or more.
