What’s the best pathway for an Australian on an E3 visa to transition to a greencard? Do I have to go to a different visa type first? I’ve had 8 E3s so far.

IANAL but I have personal experience with this having gone through it myself.

It is totally possible (or, at least, it was -7 years ago and I V don’t believe the roles have significantly changed in this regard) to go directly from an E3 to a GC. That’s what I did.

It requires a little extra planning however just to make sure you don’t go out of status while your I485 petition is pending.
