H-1B Visa Services

The H-1B visa is designed for foreign professionals in specialized occupations, including:

• STEM Fields: Scientists, engineers, IT professionals, and other technical roles requiring specialized knowledge.
• Business and Finance: Positions in finance, accounting, and business management.
• Healthcare and Medical Professionals: Doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals with specialized skills.
• Education and Research: Professors, researchers, and educators in higher education institutions or research organizations.

To qualify, applicants must have a job offer from a U.S. employer, a relevant degree or equivalent experience, and the employer must prove that the role requires specialized knowledge.

Our team provides a full suite of services to help employers and employees navigate the H-1B visa process, from application preparation to compliance support:

• Eligibility and Job Classification Assessment: We assess the role and applicant’s qualifications to confirm eligibility for the H-1B visa, ensuring the job meets the criteria for a “specialty occupation.”
• Labor Condition Application (LCA) Filing: Our attorneys file the LCA with the Department of Labor, a requirement to ensure fair wages and working conditions for H-1B visa holders.
• H-1B Petition Preparation and Filing: We prepare and submit Form I-129 and supporting documentation, ensuring a complete and accurate application.
• Cap-Subject and Cap-Exempt Filing: For both regular cap and cap-exempt filings (e.g., institutions of higher education, nonprofits), we guide clients through the specific requirements.
• Extension and Renewal Support: Our firm assists with H-1B renewals, extensions, and changes of employer, helping to maintain valid status for H-1B visa holders.

• • What is the H-1B visa cap?
    The H-1B visa cap limits the number of visas issued each year. Currently, there are 65,000 regular cap visas and an additional 20,000 for those with a U.S. master’s degree or higher.
  • Can H-1B visa holders apply for a green card?
    Yes, H-1B visa holders can pursue a green card, often through employment-based categories. We provide assistance with the green card process for H-1B visa holders.
  • How long is the H-1B visa valid?
    The H-1B visa is initially valid for three years, with the possibility of extensions up to a maximum of six years.
  • What happens if the H-1B visa cap is reached?
    If the cap is reached, the USCIS conducts a lottery to select applicants. Cap-exempt employers are not subject to this limit and can file H-1B applications at any time.
