About Our EB-3 Visa Program

Interstaff’s EB-3 Visa Program is a comprehensive pathway for international nurses seeking permanent employment in the United States. This visa program is tailored to support candidates who meet specific qualifications, including having a BSN or nursing diploma, being a licensed Registered Nurse with at least one year of current bedside experience in a 100+ bed acute care inpatient facility, and having strong English language skills.

Our program offers exceptional support throughout the immigration journey. Interstaff assigns a designated processing officer to guide candidates through each step of the EB-3 Visa process. Benefits include NCLEX exam sponsorship and extensive coverage of visa-related fees.

Interstaff’s EB-3 Visa Program ensures a stable foundation for international nurses to build their careers in the U.S., offering additional perks like annual raises, cost-of-living reviews, and access to professional growth initiatives. Learn more about the overall process below.

EB-3 Process Steps

Frequently Asked Questions

The length of the EB-3 immigration process can vary depending on several factors, such as the applicant's country of origin, visa retrogression (delays caused by the number of visas available in a particular region), and how quickly required documentation is prepared and submitted. The EB-3 process can take anywhere from 18 months to 3 years. And nurses who passed the NCLEX and IELTS, and whose country's immigration status was "current" experienced a processing time of 12-18 months. It's important to know that everyone's process is different, and the timeline varies case by case.

Of course! Your spouse and any unmarried children under 21 may relocate alongside you to the U.S. Interstaff even handles their immigration process. You will just be responsible for their Visa fees (Interstaff covers yours).

Applicants must be a Registered Nurse (both BSN and Nursing Diploma accepted), currently work full-time in an acute care inpatient hospital with 100+ beds, have 1 year of current bedside experience, have an active nursing license and an updated CV, and speak strong English. We do NOT require applicants to pass the NCLEX or IELTS before applying to our agency.

If you do not meet all of the basic requirements, you may proceed with your application once they are met.

Our application process has three steps, and the timeline can range from two weeks to one month, depending on how long it takes an applicant to complete each step and our interview availability.

  1. • The very first step is a general application to see if you're a Registered Nurse and if you're currently working in an approved hospital.
  2. • The second step is to complete a pre-qualification form where we simply ask for your credentials (CV & nursing license).
  3. • The last step is your clinical interview with a team member from our Programs department.

We do not! Nurses will incur a few costs throughout the process (CES Report fee, IELTS fee, etc.), but we do not charge a processing fee. We also don't do any paycheck withholdings.

We place nurses in hospitals all across the United States. Placement locations depend on the available openings at our hospital facilities, a nurse's related work experience, family dynamics, and many other factors. Our team is dedicated to finding the right fit for our nurses!
