If you are a plastic surgeon in Brazil and want to move to the United States, you may be eligible for a Green Card!

This is possible thanks to the sanction of the Immigration Act by the American government in 1990. This law created different categories of Green Card, from 1st to 5th preference, which differ according to the professional skills of applicants for American visas. 

Most medical specialists obtain their green cards in the EB-1 and EB-2 categories. In these visa categories, the US government does not require the eligible candidate to present a previous job offer in the United States.

Salaries

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average annual salary for a specialist surgeon in the United States is 347 thousand dollars. This average covers different specialties within general surgery. 

According to a study carried out by Doximity - an American company in the health sector - a plastic surgeon has an annual salary of 571,000 dollars in the United States, making them one of the best-paid professionals in American medicine.

EB-2 NIW Visa: How to get your Green Card

If you are a plastic surgeon, have more than five years ' professional experience and exceptional or extraordinary skills in your field, you may be eligible for a Green Card!

If you are approved for a Green Card under this visa category, your spouse and children under the age of 21 will also be granted their respective Green Cards.

All this without you needing a previous job offer in the United States.

America needs doctors!

Medicine is an essential area for the well-being and development of the United States, and doctors have a high chance of being approved for green cards in the EB-1 and EB-2 categories.
