H-1B and Green Card processing for DDS graduates

Hello,

My wife is going to graduate with a DDS degree and has a B.D.S degree from India with 4 yrs work experience. Do dentists with a DDS degree fall under a different category for H-1B visa? In the sense, do DDS degree graduates qualify for the Advanced degree category for H-1B?

What category would they fall under for the Green Card processing? EB2/EB3? Please let me know when time permits.

Thank you very much for you help in advance!
 
There are onlt 2 categories for H1B - cap subject and cap exempt; I am not sure what you are asking.

Either GC processing category requires sponsorship. She needs to worry about this first before worrying about classification. She may not be able to get a professional job which would sponsor so it is then a moot point. Just because she has a DDS does not mean that her job would require that, and she might be overqualified. Thus, it would be improper to make assurances based on the information that you have provided.
 
Re:

Thank you for taking time to respond to my query.

Why do you say "She may not be able to get a professional job which would sponsor" ? Are you 100% sure about this? If you are not sure about H-1B processing for DDS graduates, please refrain from answering or trying to answer such questions. I appreciate your efforts, but futile would they turn out to be if you are wrong.

Thanks again.

-----------------OP just asked if that his wife be having DDS degree from US and has a B.D.S degree from India with 4 yrs work experience and just wanted to know if she is qualified to get H1 from US employer.
Either GC processing category requires sponsorship.
---OP is NOT asking for GC he is asking for H1 visa or H1 status.
She needs to worry about this first before worrying about classification. She may not be able to get a professional job which would sponsor so it is then a moot point.
Just because she has a DDS does not mean that her job would require that, and she might be overqualified.
----- if US employer require DDS degree and DDS degree holder is eligible for H1 and Employer is ready to file H1 for her then why she cant get H1?
Thus, it would be improper to make assurances based on the information that you have provided.
---OP provided clear info what is his wife qualification and what he wanted to know. if you don't know the answer then don't post and don't confuse the OP and if OP does not get any response it means we don't know about it and should contact a good lawyer.

OP did ask about GC filing. Too many people believe that the potential immigrant is able to initiate filing when this is the case in very limited circumstances. Filing category depends on job for which the GC is being filed. Just because a person has an advanced degree does not mean that the job they will hold requires it. Just because one once had a dental practice does not necessarily mean that person will do so again. Just because one holds a H1B does not mean that their employer will sponsor; sponsorship for GC is not required to be an H1B sponsor. OP's wife (since she is the beneficiary of the filings) needs to review the USCIS documentation for both guest workers and for employer sponsored GCs since that appears to be her plan.

It is improper to provide optimistic analysis based on very incomplete information.

-------------That is correct
Just because a person has an advanced degree does not mean that the job they will hold requires it. Just because one once had a dental practice does not necessarily mean that person will do so again.
---OP wife is getting DDS and she wants to do dental practice and that is why OP asked about H1. if one does not want to do job in US why H1?
Just because one holds a H1B does not mean that their employer will sponsor; sponsorship for GC is not required to be an H1B sponsor.
--------- But if the US employer has Permanent job then US employer will file GC
