I-140 Petition

The I-140 Petition, officially known as the Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker, is a form filed with the U.S. government by an employer to sponsor a foreign worker for permanent residency in the United States. It demonstrates that the worker has the required skills and qualifications for a specific job and that there are not enough qualified U.S. workers available for that position. Once approved, the worker can apply for a green card, allowing them to live and work in the U.S. permanently. This process is essential for individuals seeking employment-based immigration.
