What is a Professional?

Many occupations qualify as "professional" if at least a bachelor's degree is normally required. Individuals lacking a formal 4-year degree may still qualify as professionals based on their years of work experience.

An experienced immigration attorney can help determine whether your occupation and credentials qualify as "professional."
