What Is Employment-Based Immigration?
Whether you’re a foreign national seeking the opportunity to work and build a career in the United States or a U.S. business looking to bring valued talent from abroad to enhance your operations, navigating the complex landscape of employment-based immigration is an essential step.
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) offers a range of visa categories specifically designed for individuals whose unique skills and abilities are in demand by American employers and organizations. These various programs not only play a vital role in supporting diverse industries across the country but also contribute significantly to strengthening the overall workforce and fostering economic growth.
Andrew Driggs focuses on working closely with clients nationwide to thoroughly review their individual circumstances and identify the immigration options that align best with their professional goals and aspirations. He provides clear, practical guidance throughout the visa and work authorization process, ensuring that you can move forward with confidence, fully understanding each step along the way.

Immigration-Eligible Employment Visas
Not every work-related visa leads to permanent residency, but the EB visa categories provide a path that can eventually result in obtaining a green card. For individuals who meet specific qualifications, these visas offer an opportunity to live and work in the United States on a long-term basis.
Professionals with advanced degrees or individuals with exceptional ability may qualify for an EB-2 visa. In many cases, an employer must show that no qualified U.S. workers are available for the position—unless the applicant’s work is shown to be in the national interest, which can waive that requirement. Skilled workers and those with a baccalaureate degree may be eligible for EB-3 classifications, provided no U.S. workers are available with the necessary qualifications.
Managers and executives who have worked in that capacity for at least one of the last three years and are transferring to a U.S. company affiliated with their current employer may qualify for an EB-1C (formerly referenced as EB1-3) visa.
Andrew Driggs helps applicants across the country understand these categories and determine whether they may qualify. Contact Driggs Immigration Law
today to discuss your options and take the next steps toward employment-based permanent residency.
Non-Immigration Employment Visas
Even if you do not qualify for an employment-based immigrant visa, you may still be able to work or conduct business in the United States through one of the many temporary employment visas available. These visas are identified by the letters that precede their category, including B, E, H, L, O, P, R, and TN. Each serves a different purpose and is designed for specific types of workers and professionals.
Temporary visa options cover a wide range of individuals—such as specialty workers with advanced knowledge, employees being transferred to a U.S. branch of their company, individuals with extraordinary talent in the arts, sciences, education, athletics, or business, and qualifying professionals from Canada or Mexico who wish to work in the United States for a limited period. Others may apply to visit the U.S. for business purposes without seeking traditional employment. Andrew Driggs reviews credentials and background information to help determine whether a temporary employment or business visa may be available. If you’re considering temporary entry into the United States for work or business purposes, contact Driggs Immigration Law today to discuss your options.
