EB-4Special immigrants (employment-based fourth preference)

For special immigrants such as long-serving employees of the U.S. government abroad or the American Institute in Taiwan, broadcasters for the U.S. Agency for Global Media, retired international organization or NATO staff and their families, and U.S. armed forces members recruited abroad.

At a glance

How you apply
Most groups need an approved Form I-360 filed with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), by you or, in some groups such as broadcasters, by the employer. Employees of the U.S. government abroad and their surviving spouses and children instead first need a recommendation from the principal officer of their post and State Department approval, and then file Form DS-1884 with a U.S. consular section
Checked Oct 18, 2026[1,2,3]
Labor certification
Not required for any EB-4 group
Checked Oct 18, 2026[2]
Yearly limit
EB-4 receives up to 7.1% of the worldwide level of employment-based immigrant visas each year. Broadcasters are capped at 100 a year; their accompanying spouses and children do not count toward that 100
Checked Oct 18, 2026[4,5]
Petition fee
Form I-360: $515, or $0 if you served honorably on active duty in the U.S. armed forces and file under Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) section 101(a)(27)(K) (Form G-1055, edition 10/07/26). Form DS-1884 for U.S. government employees: no fee
Checked Oct 18, 2026[2,6]
Family
Some EB-4 groups let your spouse and unmarried children under 21 immigrate with you; the rules differ by group. For retired international organization or North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) staff, only the spouse is a derivative, and unmarried sons and daughters must qualify on their own
Checked Oct 18, 2026[1,2]

Overview

Religious workers, special immigrant juveniles and Afghan or Iraqi special immigrants have their own pages. This page explains the other EB-4 groups except S nonimmigrants.

EB-4 is the employment-based fourth preference, for "special immigrants". USCIS lists these groups: religious workers; special immigrant juveniles; certain broadcasters; certain retired officers or employees of a G-4 international organization or NATO-6 civilian employees, and their family members; certain employees of the U.S. government abroad and their family members; members of the U.S. armed forces; Panama Canal Company or Canal Zone Government employees; certain physicians licensed and practicing medicine in a U.S. state as of Jan. 9, 1978; and people who supplied information about a criminal or terrorist organization (S nonimmigrants).[1]

High confidence No group needs a labor certification. For the groups on this page, except U.S. government employees abroad and their survivors (who file Form DS-1884 with the State Department), you need an approved Form I-360. After it is approved, you either apply for a green card inside the U.S. on Form I-485 once a visa number is available, or USCIS forwards the approved petition to the State Department so you can apply for an immigrant visa abroad.[2,7,8]

U.S. government employees abroad, including AIT

You may qualify if you are an employee, or an honorably retired former employee, of the U.S. government abroad or of the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT), with faithful service totaling at least 15 years. The principal officer of the U.S. post (for AIT, its Director) must recommend you in exceptional circumstances, and the Secretary of State must approve the recommendation and find that granting the status is in the national interest.[10]

  • The 15 years are counted as full-time years but need not be continuous. For example, 10 years full-time plus at least 10 years half-time counts, and so do 9 years of service, a break, and 6 or more further years. Service with different U.S. agencies can be added together as long as all of it is U.S. government employment abroad, and AIT service before and after AIT was founded both count.[2]
  • If you no longer work for the U.S. government, you must be "honorably retired": leaving through a reduction in force, separation due to age, voluntary retirement or resignation for personal reasons can count, but removal for cause, or resigning to head off such a removal, does not. A record of disciplinary actions does not automatically rule out faithful service; the principal officer weighs how serious the reasons were and whether your record as a whole is one of faithful service.[2]
  • Years of service alone are not enough: every applicant must show exceptional circumstances, and with 15 to 20 years of service the recommendation must cite one of the State Department's listed circumstances. Examples on that list include diplomatic relations between your country of nationality and the United States having been severed; strained relations under which you may face retribution merely for your association with the U.S. government; heroic service; a global or regional Foreign Service National of the Year award; and service of 20 years or more.[2]
  • A surviving spouse or child of a U.S. government employee abroad may qualify as the principal (SS1) if the employee served faithfully for at least 15 years in total or was killed in the line of duty. Survivors also need the principal officer's recommendation and State Department approval, and must show exceptional circumstances. The State Department's categories for survivors are: the employee was killed in the line of duty; had at least 15 years of faithful service and was employed by the U.S. government abroad on the date of death, or in the period immediately before it (the employment ended because of the circumstances that led to the death, and the death came no more than five years later); or had 15 years of faithful service, was honorably retired at the time of death and had shown one of the exceptional circumstances while employed.[2,10]
  • The marriage or parent-child relationship must have existed when the employee died, and there is no deadline to ask for the recommendation. A child must have been under 21 and unmarried on the date of death. If the employee died before June 30, 2021, a child who later turned 21 or married can still qualify; for a death from June 30, 2021, through December 9, 2024, the same applies if that happened before December 10, 2024. If the employee died on or after December 10, 2024, the child must also still meet the legal definition of a child (unmarried and under 21, with Child Status Protection Act age rules) when Form DS-1884 is received. Each survivor needs their own recommendation and their own DS-1884.[2]
  • Section 5104 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024 makes extra visas available to U.S. government employees abroad and their surviving spouses and children when an EB-4 visa is not immediately available: up to 3,500 in fiscal year 2024 and up to 3,000 each year after that. These visas carry the codes GV, or GS for survivors, are deducted from the following year's diversity visa numbers, and the GV allocation is not subject to per-country limits. Applicants still go through the same recommendation and approval process.[2]

  1. Recommendation and approval

    The principal officer of your post sends a recommendation to the State Department, based on official records of your service, documented evidence of your exceptional circumstances and your personnel file. It must state that you are prepared to file Form DS-1884 within one year of being notified that the status is approved, and then to pursue the immigrant visa within six months of the DS-1884 approval or once a visa becomes available, whichever is later; if you are still employed, it must also state that you intend to leave U.S. government employment abroad permanently no later than your departure for the United States after the immigrant visa is issued. You cannot file the petition until you are notified of the approval.[2]

  2. Form DS-1884

    Within one year of the approval, you file Form DS-1884 with a consular section in person, by mail or by email. There is no filing fee. Your priority date is the date the properly completed DS-1884 is received. The consular officer approves it on the basis that you were accorded the status before filing and filed within one year of getting it; if a factor is missing, such as a late filing, the case goes to the State Department for an advisory opinion. If an extension is in the national interest, the principal officer can recommend extending the validity of the status approval by up to one more year.[2]

  3. Immigrant visa

    An approved DS-1884 is valid for six months, but if no visa number is available for your priority date, that period does not start until one becomes available. You then apply for the immigrant visa; the State Department's processing fee for special immigrant visa applicants is $205 per person (22 CFR 22.1, item 32(c)).[2,13]

Broadcasters

The U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM, formerly the Broadcasting Board of Governors) or a USAGM grantee, meaning Radio Free Asia or Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, can petition for you to work in the United States as a broadcaster for USAGM or a USAGM grantee: a reporter, writer, translator, editor, producer or announcer for news broadcasts; a host for news broadcasts, news analysis, editorial and other broadcast features; or a news analysis specialist. Purely technical or support jobs do not qualify, and USCIS adds that work in the entertainment field does not either.[1,5,8]

The I-360 must include a signed and dated supplemental attestation from USAGM or the grantee giving the job title and a full description of the job, and your broadcasting expertise: how long you have performed duties related to the job, or how you have the skills it requires. No more than 100 broadcasters can receive these visas in a fiscal year; accompanying spouses and children are not counted.[5,8]

Retired international organization and NATO staff

This group is for certain long-term employees of an international organization and NATO civilian employees (NATO-6), and their eligible family members, as long as the organization remains recognized: retirees, their spouses, surviving spouses, and unmarried sons and daughters (see the table below). NATO is named in the statute; USCIS's examples of other organizations include the Organization of American States, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank. You must also be admissible to the United States.[7,10,14]

Requirements by role. The same rules apply to NATO-6 civilian staff, with NATO in place of the international organization and NATO-6 status in place of G-4. Residence and physical presence count only while maintaining G-4 or N nonimmigrant status (for a retiree, G-4 only).

Checked Oct 22, 2026[2,10,14]

U.S. armed forces members recruited abroad

You may qualify if your original enlistment in the U.S. armed forces was outside the United States under a treaty or agreement in effect on October 1, 1991, you served honorably on active duty after October 15, 1978, and either (a) your service totals 12 years and, if you have separated, you were never separated except under honorable conditions, or (b) you are on active duty, have served 6 years and have reenlisted for a total active-duty obligation of at least 12 years. You must be a national of an independent state that has an agreement letting its nationals enlist each year, and the executive department you serve or served under must recommend you. The State Department names agreements with the Philippines, Micronesia and the Marshall Islands.[2,11]

You can file Form I-360 yourself, with certified proof of reenlistment (after 6 years of active duty) or certification of 12 years of past active duty from the authorizing official of your executive department, and a birth certificate showing that you are a national of a country with an enlistment agreement. There is no fee for this I-360, and the service member pays no I-485 fee. Your spouse and children can receive the same classification without a separate petition, even if they are not named in it, but the relationship must have existed when your application was approved.[6,11]

If you apply for an immigrant visa abroad, the State Department's manual says a visa number is not required in advance for this group: the consular section schedules the interview when the case is ready. A spouse or child in the U.S. who was not included in your application files their own Form I-485; for a spouse or child outside the U.S., you file Form I-824.[2,11]

Priority date and the Visa Bulletin

Your priority date is the date USCIS accepts your Form I-360 for processing (for U.S. government employees, the date the consular section receives a properly completed Form DS-1884). A visa is available to you when your priority date is earlier than the EB-4 cut-off date for your country of chargeability in the applicable Visa Bulletin chart; "C" means visas are currently available to all qualified applicants and "U" means they are temporarily unavailable. The chart below shows the current month.[2,17]

Spouse and children

Family rules differ by group. The spouse and children of a U.S. government employee may accompany or follow to join. If you qualify as a survivor (SS1), your current spouse (SS2) and your children who meet the definition of a child (SS3) may accompany or follow to join you. A broadcaster's spouse and children may receive derivative status if they accompany the broadcaster. An armed forces member's spouse and child may accompany or follow to join if the relationship existed when the member's application was approved. For international organization and NATO staff, only a retiree's spouse is a derivative; sons, daughters and surviving spouses qualify on their own (see the table above).[2,11]

If the child of a U.S. government employee is close to 21, the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA) may help. The child's CSPA age is their age on the date a visa becomes available, minus the days the DS-1884 was pending with the consulate. If EB-4 is current, the visa becomes available when the DS-1884 is approved; otherwise it becomes available when your priority date is earlier than the final action date in the Visa Bulletin or when the DS-1884 is approved, whichever is later. The child must stay unmarried and seek permanent residence, for example by filing Form DS-260, within a year of visa availability.[18]

Applying inside the U.S. (Form I-485)

High confidence If you are in the United States, you apply for a green card on Form I-485 when a visa number is available, and each family member in the U.S. files their own I-485. Broadcasters file it after USCIS approves the I-360. USCIS lets certain armed forces members applying under INA 101(a)(27)(K), and special immigrant international organization employees or family members, file the I-485 together with the I-360 (concurrent filing). For other classifications, the regulation allows the I-485 only after the petition is approved; the I-360 form instructions say whether your group may file concurrently.[8,19,20]

High confidence 8 CFR 245.1 bars some people from adjusting status, for example if they are not in lawful immigration status when they file or have ever worked without authorization. Some bars do not apply to certain special immigrants, and the exceptions differ from bar to bar. For example, the bars for not being in lawful status exempt special immigrants under INA 101(a)(27)(H), (I) or (J), which include the 1978 physicians and international organization special immigrants; of the two unauthorized-employment bars, one also exempts armed forces members under INA 101(a)(27)(K), but the other exempts no special immigrants besides (H) and (J). If you hold G status, you must first sign and submit the written waiver required by INA 247(b). An immigration attorney can check which rules apply to your history.[21]

While your I-485 is pending, you can generally apply for a work permit (Form I-765) and for advance parole (Form I-131), which is advance permission to travel and be admitted to the United States on your return.[8,14]

Applying from abroad

High confidence If you live outside the United States, USCIS forwards your approved I-360 to the Department of State for consular processing of the special immigrant visa. U.S. government employees abroad deal only with the State Department: by law their petition (Form DS-1884) can be filed only with the Secretary of State, and only after the status has been recommended and approved.[3,8]

Common mistakes

  • Missing the six-month window: a retired international organization or NATO employee must file Form I-360 no later than 6 months after retirement, and a surviving spouse no later than 6 months after the death. An unmarried son or daughter must apply by their 25th birthday.[2,14]
  • Filing Form DS-1884 at the wrong time: you may not file it until you are notified that the State Department approved your special immigrant status, and then you have one year to file unless the validity of the approval is extended.[2]
  • Counting service that does not qualify: work under a contract with a U.S. employee recreation association, rather than directly with the U.S. government, does not count toward the 15 years, and time hired by and paid through a contractor generally does not either.[2]
  • Leaving military service early: if you stop being a qualified enlistee by not completing the required active-duty obligation, for reasons other than an honorable discharge, before you immigrate or adjust status, your approved I-360 is revoked automatically.[11]

Recent policy changes

On Oct. 7, 2026, USCIS changed the filing location for Form I-360. If you mail it, check USCIS's Direct Filing Addresses for Form I-360 page first: where you file depends on your category, where you live, and whether you are also filing Form I-485 at the same time.[12]

Answers come from our sourced database and your own timeline, sorted into fact, public data, inference and unknown. No AI model is used in this version, so questions outside what we cover get an honest "not covered".

Questions people ask

I work for the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT). Can I get a green card through EB-4?

Possibly. The law covers employees and honorably retired former employees of AIT with at least 15 years of faithful service in total, if AIT's Director recommends you in exceptional circumstances and the Secretary of State approves the recommendation and finds that granting the status is in the national interest; service before and after AIT was founded counts. The State Department decides each case on its own merits, so an immigration attorney can help you assess your record.[2,10]

Do I need a labor certification or a job offer?

No labor certification is required for any EB-4 group. For broadcasters, USAGM or a USAGM grantee must file the I-360 for you, to work as a broadcaster for USAGM or a grantee in the United States.[2,5]

I worked at a U.S. embassy through a contractor. Does that time count toward the 15 years?

Generally not. If you were hired by and paid through a contractor or an independent grantee or licensee providing services to the U.S. government, you generally do not count as a U.S. government employee. Time under a personal services agreement or contract signed directly with a U.S. agency counts, and the State Department treats purchase orders the same way; in both cases you must have been paid with U.S. government funds, not indirectly by a company.[2]

My parent works for the World Bank and I am over 21. Can I still qualify?

Possibly, in your own right as an unmarried son or daughter (SK3). While maintaining G-4 or N nonimmigrant status, you must have resided and been physically present in the U.S. for at least half of the 7 years before you apply and for at least 7 years in total between ages 5 and 21, and you must apply for a visa or adjustment of status no later than your 25th birthday.[2,9,10,14]

Can I file Form I-360 online?

Certain I-360 petitions can be filed online by uploading a PDF through a USCIS online account. USCIS's Forms Available to File Online page says whether you or your representative can file yours online. Otherwise you mail it; the address depends on your category, where you live, and whether you are also filing Form I-485 at the same time.[12]
