Does anyone know which companies or which kind of organizations actually petition for employees for permanent full time employment? Aka EB3 visa. Anyone has personal experience with this? It seems to me that not many companies out there do it, and it can vary from job title to position to skills etc. My current employer won’t petition for me because my position does not require special skills or abilities.

 

Any insight would be helpful.

 

Thanks

So you’re looking for an employer who has a different opinion of your job? Or are you looking for a different job which uses a different skill set?

 

Your profile says F1 visa. Is that outdated?

Yes good call it is outdated. 

I was on F1 status last year now I only hold my EAD card but it has an expiration date - Reason why I needed an employer who would petition for me in order to stay permanently. So yes I would need a different job, which is the reason for my post.

That is not your profession... Are you an engineer or an administrative clerk?

Not sure I understand you. My title is sales consultant. And I already know my employer can’t sponsor someone on my shoes. I just want to know name of companies in which people have had success being petitioned and consequently became permanent.

This is not a job search site.  You are on your own findiung an employer.  It is very likely that oncwe you no loger provide favorable tax treatment afforded by the OPT program, you will have a hard time locating an H-1B sponsor.

 

A US degree NEVER was a guarantee for a way to a green card.  In fact, you promised to return home with your newly gained knowledge and skills.

Thanks but your response was not helpful whatsoever. I am pretty well aware this is not a job search site however my question is related to work visas therefore I will post here to find someone who can shed some light. Thanks.

It’s not the “name of companies”, it’s the job, I personally know of companies that will sponsor some employees but not others. Quite honestly as a “sales consultant” I think the opinion of your current company is likely to be a general one.

There is no magical list of companies that always sponsor/hire foreign employees to help them get green cards, if you were hoping to just start applying for sales consultant jobs with them to sponsor-shop.

 

An employer sponsoring you depends on how advanced your skills are, the position you are being hired for, whether or not an American is able to do the work they are hiring for, your profession, etc.

Your title is not your profession. Your profession is the field you work in. Also not to be so discouraging but I don’t think being a sales consultant is gonna make you stand out from the crowd in order to get a greencard. It’s my understanding that the company that sponsors you needs to show to USCIS that you have remarkable skills that no one else does and that they would lose a lot if they were to lose you as an employee. 

 

But like so many others have said this is not a job search website. You need to find that on your own. Just having a degree and holding a job doesn’t qualify you to get a greencard. Once you start the USCIS paperwork process is when you get to come here to ask questions.

I understand the process and all steps needed to get an employment based green card, I even mentioned it on the original post (EB3) and that my position doesn't require special skills or abilities for me to stand out, therefore, my employer won't petition for me because yes, basically anyone could do my job so yes I know simply having a job does not guarantee anything.  

 

Thank you for your thoughts though.

Exactly, that is the case of my company, they will sponsor other positions, not mine. And yes sales consultant is nothing special and I even mentioned that since it doesn't require special abilities my employer won't do it - I understand it all. That wasnt the point of my post, but thank you for your thoughts.
