Q: I have a job offer in the USA and applying for the EB-3. There is a backlog for my country (Philippines) what can I do?
Is there anyway that I can speed up the process?
Is there a period of time once passed that would enable it to processed quicker?
Would I be eligable for the EB-2? I have a BSN and over 10 years of experience practice in various settings.
A:
You need to wait for a visa to become available. It’s not long. If someone filed a petition now it would be about a 2-year wait. If your petition was filed before May 1, 2016, your petition might be current.
If a BSN is a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, then probably you can’t get an EB2 because for an EB 2 you need an advanced degree.
