Assisting clients such as high tech companies, medical organizations, and manufacturing businesses, our law firm helps employers hoping to hire foreign nationals for temporary work in the United States. There are a number of visa types for employees in this category that vary depending on the country of origin, the professional specialty of the worker, and the length of stay.

A common visa type in this category is the H1-B visa, which can be obtained by filing an I-129 petition. We help with the petition and with subsequent petitions for extensions of this and other visa types.

Labor Certification

In addition to helping employers with their employment immigration concerns, we also help employers with the labor certification process with the U.S. Department of Labor. This is the first step on the road to permanent resident status. Employers receiving labor certification are able to hire permanent workers on E1 and other visa types after demonstrating that their need for employees cannot be met in the United States. The process is long and tedious, but we can take care of it.

All Employment Immigration Visa Types

At the Law Offices of Susan Amini, we focus on providing the best solution to your company's immigration needs, based on a thorough review of your immigration options and business requirements. Some of the business visa types we have helped businesses obtain for employees include the:

• H1-B: temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations
• L-1: multinational companies seeking to transfer an employee to the U.S.
• TN: for citizens of Mexico and Canada under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)
• B-1: temporary business visa
• O-1: for employees of extraordinary ability

Employment Immigration Solutions

If the visa applicant is already in the U.S. and cannot leave to obtain consular processing of a new visa, our law firm can help the individual with an Adjustment of Status petition. Employment-based visa applications and underlying petitions can be complex. It is important to have legal advice with experience in immigration law matters.
