U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced Wednesday it would extend premium processing to E-3 nonimmigrant visa petitioners.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The E-3 visa classification is only available to Australian nationals in a specialty occupation. Australian nationals who are outside of the country can apply for E-3 nonimmigrant visas directly through the U.S. State Department; those inside the United States can do so by filing Form I-129 with USCIS. E-3 petitioners must (1) be nationals of Australia; (2) have a legitimate offer of employment in the United States; (3) have the required academic or qualifying credentials; and (4) be filling a position that qualifies as a specialty occupation.
