EB-3 Success Case: Korea Hospitality Skilled Role Green Card
EB-3 Korea hospitality success: skilled experience, PERM, I-140, consular green card. Service-sector employment-based path.
Short answer: A Korea-born applicant had over two years of restaurant or hotel operations experience. The employer completed recruitment, PERM and I-140 in the EB-3 skilled worker category; after the interview the applicant received an immigrant visa and entered to take up the role.
Case focus
Service-sector jobs must still prove that minimum experience is real, and ads must not say “willing to train” while PERM requires two years. Experience letters described concrete duties such as prep, guest service, scheduling or kitchen supervision. See US EB-3 Employment-Based Immigration.

Lessons
Hotels and restaurants may need staff, but immigration cases do not accept “experience by word of mouth.” Consistent Romanization of Korean names across the file reduces administrative delay.
Global Immigrate’s recommendation
Write only experience minimums the employer truly needs and can prove. Keep prior employers’ registration details for possible verification. If family follows, put civil documents on the same timeline as the principal.
