Overview of EB-3 Visa Application Procedure

The way toward getting a green card for nurses can be challenging, so we've made a free immigration sponsorship process for international nurses that we oversee from application through endorsements. Here's the means by which it works.

Stage 1: Application Sign-Up

This involves submitting documents for evaluation, verification, and scheduling an interview directly with your prospective employer.
