The EB-3 is an immigrant visa preference category for United States employment-based permanent residency. It is intended for "skilled workers", "professionals", and "other workers".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Employment-Based Immigration: Third Preference EB-3 )〕 Those are prospective immigrants who don't qualify for the EB-1 or EB-2 preferences. The EB-3 requirements are less stringent, but the backlog is much longer: typically 6 to 9 years, except for residents of India and China, for whom the backlog is even longer, sometimes more than 12 years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The EB3 India backlog is still bad )〕 Unlike persons with extraordinary abilities in the EB-1 category, EB-3 applicants require a sponsoring employer. There is no "self-petition" category.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Employment Based Green Cards )〕 ==Eligibility criteria== The EB-3 category has three subcategories: EB-3A, Professionals; EB-3B, Skilled Workers; and EB-3C, Other Workers . 〔http://www.uscis.gov/working-united-states/permanent-workers/employment-based-immigration-third-preference-eb-3〕 For each, eligibility requirements include: * a labor certification * a permanent, full-time job offer * ability to demonstrate that the applicant will be performing work for which qualified workers are not available in the United States. Separate requirements for each category are: * Skilled workers - must be able to demonstrate at least 2 years of job experience or training * Professionals - must possess a U.S. baccalaureate degree or foreign degree equivalent, and must demonstrate that a baccalaureate degree is the normal requirement for entry into the occupation. Education and experience may not be substituted for a baccalaureate degree. * Other workers - must be capable, at the time the petition is filed by the sponsoring employer, of performing unskilled labor (requiring less than 2 years training or experience), that is not of a temporary or seasonal nature, for which qualified workers are not available in the United States. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「EB-3 visa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
