E-3 Visa General Information: The E-3 Visa is a new Work Visa category
available only to Australian citizens. The E-3 Treaty Professional Visa is a
temporary work visa. It is usually issued for 2 years at a time. United States legislation limits the E-3
Visa to citizens of Australia. The primary E-3 Work Visa applicant must be going to the United States to work in a specialty occupation. The spouse and children
of the main E-3 Visa applicant do not need to be Australian citizens. Spouses of E-3
Visa holders are entitled to E-3D (dependent) Visas and work authorization.
E-3 Visa Eligibility Requirements: The term "Specialty Occupation" means an
occupation that requires theoretical and practical application of a body of
highly specialized knowledge and 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. The definition is the same as the Immigration
and Nationality Act definition of an H-1B specialty occupation.
E-3 Visa Additional Information: The annual quota for E-3 Visas is 10,500. This a very high quota, by comparison only 900 Australians succeeded
in obtaining H-1B Work Visas in 2004. The
H-1B Work Visa has an annual cap of
65,000. This quota applies to citizens of all countries in the world, while
the E-3 Visa is available to Australians only. If you are an Australian citizen, the E-3
Visa can be easier to obtain than the H-1B Work Visa. E-3
Work Visas are
temporary visas, meaning that when the visa expires, the individual has to leave
the United States. E-3 Work Visas are usually issued for 2 years. However, E-3
Visas may be renewed indefinitely (in two-year extensions).
