H-3 Trainees

An H-3 is an alien temporarily participating in a special education training program in the education of children with physical, mental, or emotional disabilities. The petitioning entity providing the training must provide the INS with details of the training, together with an explanation as to why such training is not available in the alien’s country. The application should demonstrate that any employment will be incidental to the training. The H-3 status may be granted for up to two years.
