The United States holds many opportunities for foreigners who wish to obtain employment within the country. Employment immigration law, however, is complex. There are many different ways to obtain employment as a non-citizen and it is important that you apply for the right type of employment visa so you give yourself the best chance of securing the work visa you need. A Cook County immigration attorney can help you navigate the process and give you the best chance of working in the United States.
If you intend to immigrate to the United States so that you can permanently live and work in the country, you must apply to become a legal permanent resident through an employer. While not all employees entering the country for work must be sponsored by an employer, this is a requirement for most. These work visas are limited with only a certain amount being issued each year. To qualify for these types of work visas, you must meet the requirements within that category.
Although the number of these visas is limited, you can check the Department of State’s website to determine how many are currently available.
Sometimes people wish to work in the United States, but they do not want to remain permanently in the country. These individuals still need a work visa, although these differ from those for intending immigrants.
An attorney can advise on which type of visa is most applicable to your specific situation.
