I am an immigration lawyer. EB3 stands for employment based immigrant visa preference category 3 which is one of several categories under which one can seek permanent residence (aka green card) in the US. This does not provide immediate ability to work. But, I’m a later stage of the process, it can produce a work permit. Below, please find a list of attorneys whom I respect that are likely to have come across nanny questions. Please note that if the nanny is here in the US without valid immigration status or has entered the US without inspection (“illegally crossing the border”), options are severely limited.
