Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to wait until my EB-1 Green Card is approved?
The processing time for EB-1 Green Card applicants is much shorter than for other Green Card categories. This is largely due to the fact that you can file the petition on your own behalf and do not have to obtain a labor certification. The average processing time for an I-140 petition (Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker) is 4 months, based on data from the last 5 years. Depending on where you are located when applying for these visas, the processing time for change of status or consular applications varies from applicant to applicant.
If you are in the United States and you are applying for adjustment of status, you can find detailed information on the processing times for the I-485 form you need to submit on the USCIS official website. If you are filing your application outside the U.S. through a U.S. consulate, you can visit Consular Processing for full details, including waiting times.
Can my spouse and children benefit from my EB-1 Green Card approvals?
Yes. Spouses and children under 21 years of age of EB-1 Green Card approved individuals can be in the United States in E-14/15 and E-21/22 status, respectively. This means that they are also granted permanent residency and work authorization.
Can my child/children study in the USA?
Your child/children under 21 years of age can benefit from all the visa rights granted to you. As this gives them a permanent and legal residence permit, there are no obstacles to their participation in a part- or full-time study program.
Can I apply for EB-1A from a country other than the United States?
Yes, you can! Applicants who do not have legal temporary immigration status and who reside outside the U.S. may apply for an EB-1 Green Card through consular processing.
Unfortunately, this process takes longer than adjustment of status. To learn more about consular processing, please visit Consular Processing.
Is it possible to apply for Premium Processing for an EB-1 Green Card?
It is possible to apply for an EB-1 Green Card through Premium Processing for an additional fee. Premium processing reduces the processing time from an average of 4 months to 15 days.
Can I file EB-1 Green Card petitions on my own behalf?
Yes. Unlike other employment-based Green Card applications such as EB-3, you can sponsor yourself for EB-1. This means that you can apply without a job offer and a work certificate from the US.
