The full guide
This is the standard, entirely employer-driven route to a US green card through a job offer — genuinely different from EB-1A/NIW's self-petition, and this app deliberately doesn't try to fake individualized precision here, since the real process is a Department of Labor-run test of the US labor market (PERM) your employer controls, not something you can push forward yourself. The one genuinely good, often-overlooked fact for this app's actual audience: as of the August 2026 visa bulletin, EB-2 is fully 'Current' and EB-3 has only a mild ~2-year retrogression for the 'Rest of World' chargeability category that almost every African country falls under — the years-long, sometimes decade-plus backlogs you'll read about widely online are specific to applicants born in India or China, not most Pasage users.
Cost: $715 base fee + $300 Asylum Program Fee for most for-profit employers (2026)
