EB-1 “Multinational Manager” Immigrant Visas
Managers and executives employed by a multinational company can apply for permanent residency in the U.S. under the EB-1-3 multinational manager category.

- Within the last three years immediately preceding the EB-1 petition or their L-1 entry to the U.S., the foreign worker was employed abroad by the company for at least one continuous year;
- The foreign worker will continue providing services to this same employer or a parent, branch, subsidiary or affiliate;
- The foreign worker’s position abroad was executive or managerial;
- The foreign worker is coming to the U.S. to fill an executive or managerial position; and
- The prospective U.S. employer has been doing business for at least one year.
