Non-Immigrant Employment Visas
There are all kinds of reasons that U.S. employers hire temporary employees from other countries. Our employment-based immigration lawyers can help with these situations and much more:
H1-B1 Visas – For professionals working in a specialty occupation.
O-1 Visas – For individuals of extraordinary ability.
TN Visas – NAFTA Treaty Visa for citizens of Mexico and Canada.
R-1 Visas – For religious workers, their spouse and children.
E-1 Visas / E-2 Visas – For Treaty Traders and Treaty Investors.
B-1 Visas (For Business) / B-2 Visas (For Pleasure) – Apply directly through U.S. Consulate in their jurisdiction.
Employers And Permanent Labor Certification
PERM Labor Certification – Program Electronic Review Management (PERM) is the first step for certain foreign workers to obtain an employment-based immigrant visa (green card). The filing of the application is the responsibility of the employer.
The process requires a petitioning employer to conduct a series of recruitment activities to prove a U.S. citizen or permanent resident has not been found for a given position. PERM is required for EB-2 and EB-3 employment-based categories. PERM is a complex and lengthy process and we highly recommend seeking counsel from an experienced immigration law firm.
