This reference page outlines key aspects of the U.S. employment-based green card process, drawing from BAL’s guidance and legal best practices. What is an employment-based green card? An employment-based green card allows a foreign national to become a lawful permanent resident of the United States through sponsorship by a U.S. employer. It provides the individual with the right to live and work permanently in the U.S. and eventually apply for citizenship if desired. This pathway is commonly used by professionals, skilled workers and executives whose expertise is needed by U.S. companies. The employer plays a central role in the employment-based green card process.
