E-3 Specialty Occupation Workers from Australia

The E-3 classification applies only to nationals of Australia. You must be coming to the United States solely to perform services in a specialty occupation. The specialty occupation requires theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge  and the attainment of a bachelor's or higher degree in the specific specialty, or its equivalent, as a minimum for entry into the occupation in the United States.


To qualify for an E-3 visa, you must demonstrate, among other things, that you:

  • Are a national of Australia

  • Have a legitimate offer of employment in the United States

  • Possess the necessary academic or other qualifying credentials

  • Will fill a position that qualifies as a specialty occupation

We are waiting for your call.
