Our Chino Hills business immigration lawyers can assist you with:
- EB-1A Green Cards. EB-1A green cards are reserved for individuals with “extraordinary” ability in the field of science, art, education, business, or athletics. The EB-1A visa confers lawful permanent residency, meaning you will be able to live anywhere in the United States. Recipients may also eventually be able to qualify for citizenship. Unlike other employment-based green cards, applicants do not need a permanent offer of employment from a U.S. employer. To qualify, you must be able to provide substantial evidence of your extraordinary ability and the national or international acclaim it has generated. Processing times for the EB-1A visa can be shorter than other employment-based green cards, as there are often fewer qualified applicants than there are available visas. For more information read our our EB1-A Green Card blog article.
- E-3 Visas. This visa allows Australian professionals to work certain types of “specialty occupations” in the United States. To qualify, you must be an Australian national with a university degree and an offer of employment. The position you are applying to fill must also require relevant, degree-level knowledge. The E-3 visa is valid for two years but can in many cases be renewed indefinitely.
- H-1B Visas. Employers can use the H-1B visa to hire foreign talent for specialty occupations.. The job must require a bachelor’s degree (or foreign equivalent) as well as the application of a specialized body of knowledge. USCIS only issues 65,000 of these visas per year. An additional number of 20,000 visas are available to individuals who have a US Masters’ degree. The H-1B visa is valid for up to six years. For more information read our What is a H-1B Visa? blog article.
- J-1 Visas. The J-1 visa facilitates participation in study- and work-related exchange programs in the United States. Qualifying programs are available for au pairs, physicians, professors, scholars, specialists, teachers, trainees, interns, camp counselors, college and university students, secondary school students, government visitors, international visitors, and individuals traveling for summer work.
- L-1A Visas. Managers and executives of multinational business organizations can use the L-1A visa to transfer to U.S.-based offices. This visa can also be used to send managers and executives to establish a new office in the United States. To qualify, a manager or executive must have worked for their employer for at least one of the preceding three years before transferring. The L-1A visa is valid for up to seven years. For more information read our What You Need to Know About the L-1A blog article.
- O-1 Visas. Individuals with extraordinary ability in the arts, sciences, education, business, or athletic fields may qualify for this temporary nonimmigrant visa, which is distinct from the EB-1A green card. Unlike the EB-1A visa, the O-1 visa requires an offer of employment. U.S. businesses can use this visa to quickly bring foreign talent to the country. The O-1 visa is initially valid for up to three years but can be renewed an unlimited number of times in one-year increments. For more information read our O-1 Visa Classification blog article.
- Waivers for Physicians. Under certain conditions, physicians who participate in a J-1 exchange program can be exempted from the requirement to return to their home countries for at least two years. Our team at Parikh & Prasad, PC can assess your eligibility and help you understand your options.
