The H-1B visa is a highly sought after visa for individuals aiming to work legally in the United States for a temporary period. Our unique processing system allows individuals seeking employment based immigration visas to file faster and at a more competitive cost than traditional routes.
The H-1B program creates opportunities for foreign professionals to work legally in the United States. Essentially, it allows employers to hire qualified workers in specialty occupations for a temporary time period. Specialty occupations include science, teaching, accounting, engineering and information technology.

Initial H-1B visas are granted for a time period of three years except for Chile or Singapore nationals. To start the process, you as the applicant need to have a US. Employer to sponsor you.
