Employment Visa

With the help of an employment visa, any foreigner can work in the U.S. There are generally two types of employment visas, temporary and permanent ones. The applicants must provide relevant information regarding their previous work history, how they lived their lives in their home country, and why they want to go to the U.S. to apply for the employment visa.

 

What options are available for the Employment Visa?

 

There are different options available for those people who want to work in the U.S. and for those employers or bosses who want to hire foreign nationals for their companies. Applicants who wish to work in the U.S. must either have a work permit, a green card, or an employment visa obtained from their prospective employer. 

 

It must be noted that every year there are a limited number of employment visa issues who qualify under the U.S. immigration law. These visas are different from temporary worker visas and business visas. To apply for this visa, the employer needs to get approval from the Department of Labor for filing a petition for the said foreign worker.

 

There are different categories for these prospective workers based on which the applications are various. It must be kept in mind that these visas are granted on a first-come, first-serve basis.
