Total EB-3 Visa Processing Time in 2026
I've been reading a lot about the EB-3 visa and I'm a little confused by the number of different steps I'll have to go through. I've found very different timelines for all of these steps, and I'm curious how long they take on average. Do you have this information? I'd like to at least get an idea of how long it will take me to get my EB-3 visa.
