I-140 for Nurses (Schedule A)

Helping Registered Nurses and Healthcare Employers Secure Permanent Residency

At Thiele Law PLLC, we help registered nurses and healthcare organizations navigate the Schedule A Green Card process, which allows certain medical professionals to obtain permanent residence in the United States without going through the lengthy PERM labor certification.

With over 25 years of immigration experience, 24/7 client availability, and thousands of successful healthcare petitions, our firm makes the process simple, compliant, and efficient — so nurses can focus on their careers and employers can fill critical positions quickly.

 

What Is Schedule A for Nurses?

Schedule A is a special immigration classification for occupations recognized by the U.S. Department of Labor as being in national shortage — including registered nurses.

Because nursing is pre-certified under Schedule A, employers can skip the PERM Labor Certification stage, dramatically speeding up the green-card process.

With a Schedule A I-140 petition, nurses can:

• Obtain U.S. permanent residence (green card) through employment

• Bring their spouse and children as dependents

• Live and work anywhere in the United States

• Continue advancing their professional credentials and career

Ideal for:
Hospitals | Long-term care facilities | Home-health agencies | Healthcare networks | Private medical practices
