For some areas of work, there is a path to living in the USA via a Green Card, and today, I will share this with you.
Most of the Tech areas are eligible for this path. All you need is:
Bacharel and a Master's Degree + 5 years of experience in the area of your work.
OR
Technical Degree + 10 years of experience.
The name of the program is called EB2-NIW. It is a long path where you can have a Green Card in the end.
When I moved to Canada, I had to prove my years of work experience and academic background. The difference is that I received only a temporary visa attached to the company that sponsored me. In this program, you arrive in the USA with a Permanent Residence called Green Card. If you want more information about this program, I recommend you follow the company D4U on the Internet.
And Yes, it is that simple! Today's post will be as simple as the path to getting a Green Card in the USA. :)
In case you missed last week's announcement, I shared about a FREE LIVE COURSE:
So here it is: I will offer a FREE CLASS of Soft Skills in Portuguese for the people who are subscribed to Tech & Accent! All you need to do is reply to this email, and you will be included in the free class.
In case you answer, and I do not answer back, some people told me on other platforms that they answered, but I did not answer them. If this is your case, please find me on another platform to make sure I receive your inscription :)
The course is on 23rd March 2024 from 2 pm to 4 pm Brasilia Time. I am doing this by heart, I really don’t want to receive anything back. This is not part of any sales strategy; it is just an intuitive strategy that came from my heart to help the 512 people who are walking the same path I am in this newsletter.
Sponsorship:
This newsletter is sponsored by Playbook DPI - Desenvolvimento Profissional Internacional. The product is in Portuguese, and the price is in R$.
It is a practical guide with everything you need to get a job abroad based on my experience. Also, it includes a goal and habits tracker to help you in 2024.
