Employment-based immigration is a process through which foreign nationals come to the United States to work, typically on a temporary or permanent basis, based on a valid job offer from a U.S. employer. This type of immigration is essential for professionals, skilled workers, investors, and others seeking employment opportunities in the United States.

 Employment-Based Visas 

The U.S. offers various employment-based visa categories, each designed for specific types of workers and industries. These visas are typically divided into temporary and permanent categories, with temporary visas allowing foreign workers to work in the U.S. for a limited duration, while permanent visas, like employment-based green cards, provide long-term immigration solutions.

Eligibility for Employment-Based Immigration

There are several different types of work visas available for employment-based immigration, each with its own eligibility requirements. Our Houston employment-based immigration attorney can assist you in determining which visa your employee will need, as well as help you navigate the application process.

The most common employment-based immigration visas are:

  • H-1B Visa: This visa is for specialty occupations, including computer professionals, university professors, and others with a bachelor's degree or higher, or foreign equivalent.
  • O-1 Visa: This visa is for individuals with extraordinary abilities, such as renowned researchers, multinational executives, and others.
  • TN Visa: This visa is for Canadian and Mexican citizens who are seeking to work in the United States in a NAFTA profession.
  • L-1 Visa: This visa is for managers and executives who are being transferred to the United States by an international company with offices in both countries.

Each of these visas has its own eligibility requirements, including the need for a sponsoring employer. Our team at the Law Office of Ivan Neel can help you determine which visa your employee will need and help you navigate the application process.
