An advanced degree means a US master's degree or higher, or a US bachelor's degree (or foreign equivalent) plus at least five years of progressive post-degree experience in the specialty.
EB-2 advanced degree professionals need a job that requires an advanced degree and must themselves hold one. A US master's or higher, or its foreign equivalent, satisfies this directly.
Alternatively, a US bachelor's degree (or foreign equivalent) combined with five years of progressive, post-baccalaureate experience in the specialty is treated as the equivalent of an advanced degree. The role offered must genuinely require this level of qualification. Documenting both the degree and, where used, the progressive experience with detailed letters is essential, since USCIS scrutinizes whether the position truly requires an advanced degree.
