Understanding the Nanny Green Card
The nanny green card falls under the EB-3 visa, which is an employment-based green card. This visa classification means you are granted residency in the United States, and with a bonafide job offer, you have the ability to legally work.
How to Obtain It
You can apply for this green card at any time, though it is a long and complicated process. Certifications, petitions, forms, and interviews are all a part of the application, but our team at Zohar Law is here to help you through every step.
Who is Eligible
Applicants for the nanny green card must satisfy a few requirements, such as working in a position that has less than two years of training, and being sponsored by a valid job offer. Anyone who can satisfy the requirements of the EB-3 is eligible to apply.
Validation Period
Obtaining the green card under the EB-3 visa grants you ten years of residency and work eligibility. As each person’s situation is different, the validation period may vary. Contact our lawyers to help you determine which plan is best for you.
Obtaining a green card is a great opportunity for nannies to legally immigrate to the States for employment. If you are interested in applying, it is important to apply sooner rather than later, as processing times for these green cards can last a year or more.
