An H-1B visa is an employment-based and non-immigrant visa that allow you to work in the United States temporarily. It requires a job offer from an employer.
The Law Offices of Michael J. Gurfinkel, Inc. can assist you through every step of the H-1B visa petition. With our extensive knowledge and experience in immigration law, we can help you navigate the application process and ensure your petition’s timely completion.
While H-1B is for a temporary job, it has stringent requirements. First, your job needs to be a specialty occupation, and second, you have the theoretical and practical expertise in it. It requires you to have a bachelor’s degree or equivalent related to the job you are getting for the visa.
This visa is also open for fashion models.
These strict and specific requirements are in place to protect similarly employed American workers from being affected by the surge of non-immigrant workers.
There is also a limit on how many of these H-1B visas are issued annually, so you need to act quickly and apply when they are available.
Applying for an H-1B visa is complicated. It offers temporary employment, but also requires you to meet strict requirements. The Law Offices of Michael J. Gurfinkel, Inc. has a team of dedicated immigration attorneys and paralegals who can strategize with you and your employer and help you navigate every step of the process.
