Second Preference Employment Based Immigration EB2 (Green Card) is available for the following individuals:
Advantage in Application Process
The Second Preference Employment Based is allotted about 40,000 annual visas plus any unused visas in the First Preference Employment Based. Labor Certification (PERM) and a specific job offer are normally required for most individuals in the Second Preference Employment Based category. To be exempt from the Labor Certification (PERM) and specific job offer requirement, the individual must request a National Interest Waiver and the USCIS must determine that such an exemption would be in the National Interest. Since 1990, individuals from most individuals from most countries (except India and China) have been allowed to file their petitions and applications immediately after obtaining Labor Certification (PERM) certification, without waiting for numerical availability. The immediate availability of this category will likely to continue for individuals from most countries.
