Hi Cj,
I would be interested to know if you need to be more qualified than an American also.

The other thing that I would like to know is whether there is a specific group or website that I can contact to find out if my specific job is eligible. From what I can see it is but I would like to make sure before I start applying for roles.

My other concern is that I do not have a uni degree. My job level always has a minimum level of degree but I can get around this as I have 7-10 years experience & qualifications from a certified organisation that is highly respected in my field.

Any suggests on someone that I can speak to to check these specifics, or if I let you know are you able to offer advice?

Thanks,
Jacqui

Hey CJ

Do the employers have to prove that you are more qualified for the job than an American before they give it to you. I know that H1B can be like that. Also what is the Department of Labor form? Is that to state how much they are going to pay you? I’ve been told by a company HR that they won’t employ me on a visa because they can’t prove that I’m more qualified for the job than an American. Is this really a problem with the E3?

Do I actually need to be more qualified for a job than an American on this visa? I’m currently on a J1 and plan on switching. Thanks.

Hi Marilyn,
You have 10 days to leave the US after your E3 visa is canceled.

Hi Joanna,
I am not sure what you mean apply for a waiver. If you mean the visa waiver program and you are from an eligible country then sure you can do it. There is nothing you can do about past history denials to expunge it, you just explain that to an immigration officer if they ask.

If I apply for waiver and later with my original docs apply for visa..is that possible.. Or simply waiver? To atleast rectify the mistake.

Hi Joanna,
No if you get denied for any visa, it does not mean you can’t visit the US again. If it is for an obscure reason like you causing the violation by say a criminal act or overstaying, etc. then you may have problems but even then it is still possible.

Hi Joanna,
You are in a tough situation but just b/c this has happened doesn’t mean if you find another employer sponsor who is legitimate your H1B visa wont be approved.
