We prepare and file temporary visa petitions, including all related forms and supporting documents. We advise our clients about possible issues in a case as well as current and anticipated processing times. We track the temporary immigration status of company employees and assist in the path from temporary to permanent residence in the United States. Work visa options include:
- B-1 for international business
- B-1 in lieu of H for short-term employment with the U.S. branch of a related overseas entity
- E-1/E-2 for treaty trader/investors
- E-3 for Australian citizen professionals
- F-1 for students
- H-1B for professional level employment
- H-3 for trainees
- H-2A for temporary agricultural workers
- J for exchange visitors, scholars or trainees (including waivers of the 2 year home residency requirement, if applicable)
- L-1A for managers or executives
- L-1B for specialized knowledge employees who have worked with an overseas entity related to a U.S. entity
- O for those with extraordinary ability in their field
- R for religious workers
- TN for Canadian and Mexican professionals
We carefully evaluate each case and advise our clients about the most suitable nonimmigrant visa option. We examine the short and long-term plans of the individual and the employer and the impact of a particular visa on family members who will travel with the non-immigrant to the United States. We anticipate what issues might arise and plan how best to address them. This allows us to determine the cleanest, quickest way to achieve the client’s objectives.
