Physicians: Obtaining Permanent Residence Using PERM and/or NIWs

Immigration Attorney Carl Shusterman (Former INS Attorney 1976-82) explains how International Medical Graduates (IMGs) and Canadian physicians can obtain permanent residence in the U.S. through family-based immigration, the green lottery, investment and a variety of other means.

Our law firm has assisted over 2,000 IMGs and Canadian physicians in obtaining J waivers and green cards.

Further information is available on our PERM Resources page and our National Interest Waivers for Physicians page. Our law firm won the landmark lawsuit, Schneider v. Chertoff which easied the process of obtaining green cards through national interest waivers for physicians.
