The E-3 is a new visa for Australian nationals to work in specialty occupations in the U.S. It has many advantages over the other types of working visas, including the ability for spouses of E-3 recipients to apply for work authorization.
To qualify for an E-3 visa, an applicant must demonstrate:
- that he or she must have a legitimate offer of employment in the United States; and
- that the position he or she is coming to fill qualifies as specialty occupation employment; and
- that he or she is an Australian citizen; and
- that he or she has the necessary academic or other qualifying credentials; and
- that his or her stay will be temporary; and
- if required before the alien may commence employment in the specialty occupation, that he or she has the necessary license or other official permission to practice in the specialty occupation.
