ImmigraTrust Law can help with exploring your visa options.
The most common non-immigrant employment visa is the H-1B Visa. H-1B Visa is reserved for professional positions. In other words, the applicant must have a Bachelor’s Degree or higher. The applicant must also seek work related to his or her field of study and show that he or she will be paid an appropriate wage (i.e., the “prevailing wage”). Due to H-1B Visa’s popularity and annual cap limit, the timing of the application is critical. An H-1B Visa is valid for three years initially; then, the visa can be extended for an additional three years (for a maximum of six years). The application should be submitted to USCIS by April 1st to receive potential approval for that calendar year. However, there are some cap-exempt positions as well that are not affected by the annual timeline, visa cap, or predetermined employment start date. Typically, these are jobs related to higher education and nonprofit organizations.
