H1B Visa & USA Immigration information:
The H1B Visa Program is the primary USA work visa / work permit for professional foreign workers, in "Speciality Occupations", who want to live and work in America. The US Government offers the H1B visa to enable highly skilled International Workers and International Students, from all over the World, or already in the USA, the opportunity to legally live and work in America.
H1B visas are typically valid for up to six (6) years and entitles your spouse (husband/wife) and children to accompany you and 'live' in America.
One of the main advantages of the H1B visa (US work permit) is that it is a 'dual intent' visa which means that you can apply for a Green Card (Legal Permanent Residency).
To obtain an H1B visa, an applicant must, first, find a job with an H1B employer company in the USA; commonly known as your 'sponsor'. Your H1B sponsor (employer) then applies for / files your visa application.
H1B visa Sponsorship is available in the following professions: IT, Computing, Finance, Accounting, Banking, Marketing, Advertising, PR, Sales, Recruiting, Engineering (all types), Teaching, HealthCare/Medical, Legal, Lawyers, Networking, Telecoms, Business, Management. For a full list of H1B visa Qualifying Professions - click here.
If you're a Foreign Professional or International Student who wants to legally Work in the USA:
- the biggest challenge that you face, is Not just trying to find a Job in the USA...
- it's finding a Job with a Company that will 'sponsor' (apply for) an H1B visa for you.
To obtain an H1B visa to work in the USA:
* the 1st step is that you Must find an H1B Job with an H1B sponsor company.
* Individuals can Not sponsor/apply for your own H1B visa - only your new employer can.

The H1B visa is a non-immigrant visa category in the USA under the Immigration & Nationality Act, section 101(a)(15)(H). H1B visas are employer specific, and H1B holders can only work for the petitioning U.S. Employer (known as the 'sponsor'), and only in the H1B employment duties detailed in the application/petition. H1B workers can work for multiple US employers, but an I-129 petition must be applied for and approved by each employer. The sponsoring US employer can also place the H1B worker on the worksite of another employer if all applicable rules (e.g., Department of Labor rules) are followed - this is typically done by consulting companies who sub-contract the H1B worker to perform work for their clients or customers. An H1B visa holder can also transfer their H1B to a new employer without affecting the validity of their status - but the new H1B employer must file a new Form I-129 petition for the H1B worker. The H1B holder can start work for the new employer as soon as the transfer application is filed.
As long as the H1B employer/employee relationship exists, an H1B visa holder is still in valid status. An H1B holder can work in full or part-time employment and remain in status. An H1B visa worker can also be on vacation (holiday), sick / maternity / paternity leave, on strike, or otherwise inactive without affecting his/ her status.
H1B visa holders can bring their immediate family members (spouse, plus children under 21) to the USA under the H4 Visa category as dependents. An H4 Visa holder can stay in the USA for as long as the H1B visa holder remains in legal status. An H4 visa holder is not eligible to: 1) work in the USA, 2) obtain a Social Security number (SSN). An H4 Visa holder can attend College, and can obtain a driver's license and open a bank account while in the USA.

How to obtain a Green Card by Employer Sponsored Labor Certification.
There are 3 steps to obtaining a Green Card through Employer Sponsored Labor Certification.
This is the most common path to obtaining a Permanent Residence for foreign nationals who are in the U.S. on an H-1B visa.
Step 1: Apply for Labor Certification with the Department of Labor.
To obtain an approved Labor Certification, the employer must prove (through newspaper advertising) that they were unsuccessful in recruiting enough qualified workers for a certain position.
The employer may apply through Regular Labor Certification, or Reduction in Recruitment Labor Certification.
Regular Labor Certification processing involves filing the DOL forms ETA 750A and ETA 750B and waiting for advertising instructions from the Department of Labor.
Processing time for Regular Labor Certification varies between 1 to 3 years.
Reduction in Recruitment Labor Certification is where the employer shows the DOL that they have already UNSUCCESSFULLY attempted to recruit U.S. workers for the position. The DOL likes to see a consistent pattern of recruiting for the 6 months prior to filing, although in many cases one three consecutive day advertisement (including Sunday) in a major newspaper is sufficient. Newspaper advertising is the strongest form of evidence. Internet postings, job fairs, headhunters, etc., provide good supporting evidence.
Processing time for Reduction in Recruitment Labor Certification varies between 3 to 8 months.
Step 2: Once the employer has received an approved Labor Certification, they may apply to the INS with the Form I-140, Immigrant Petition For Alien Worker.
The foreign national may include his or her family (spouse and children) on the I-140.
Processing time for the I-140 is 3 to 8 months.
Step 3: Once the employer has received an approved I-140 petition, the next step is for the foreign national to apply for Adjustment of Status.
After the foreign national applies for Adjustment of Status, he or she (and the spouse and children) will receive work authorization and advance parole (re-entry permit after foreign travel) within 90 days. He or she will then have an interview for the Green Card in 6-36 months.
The foreign national and his or her spouse and children will receive the Green Cards (permanent residence) upon successful completion of the interview.

U.S. Citizenship (Naturalization)
What is U.S. Citizenship and Naturalization?
Naturalization is the way immigrants become citizens of the United States. If you were not born a citizen, you become one through naturalization. Citizenship is a lifetime benefit bestowed upon you.
As a citizen, you get unique rights and privileges which include the right to vote, having a U.S. passport , the U.S. government's protection when abroad and the right to petition for green cards for your children and close relatives. As a U.S. citizen, you cannot be deported or lose your citizenship even if you commit a crime or choose to live elsewhere in the world, unless you misrepresented yourself to get citizenship or were ineligible at the time.
What is a Family Sponsored Green Card?
US citizens and Permanent Residents (those who have a Green Card or an Alien Registration Card) are eligible to bring certain relatives into the US. These relatives can become Permanent Residents as "Family-sponsored Immigrants". Approved applications will allow family members to obtain Permanent Residency (Green Cards) and have the right to live and work in the US.

I am so unbelievably pleased with the results of your service!! I have had MUCH more 'action' in 3-4 weeks than I had in months with other websites that post your resume and send job alerts!! My biggest problem now is that I have 3 offers and don't know which to choose from!! I also want to say that the customer service is the best! I am your most happy and satisfied customer. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Before I found you I had submitted approximately 300 applications with very little response. THEN, I decided to try your service. The VERY NEXT DAY, I received contact from one of the companies listed in your database. Thank you! That's the best money I've ever spent!

Keep up the good work. Your service is excellent! I have told several people about it and one person is currently interviewing from another search. I referred my best friend to one of the jobs that was not right for me and she has an interview tomorrow.

Excellent and creative service! Probably the most efficient way to network and get your name out to the H1B employer market. Response time and effectiveness is 100x better than posting resumes on the internet. Thank you for the great service!

I am writing this letter to inform you that your service more than lived up to it's claims.
When someone pays for a service and it fulfills it's requirements then the customer feels complete with the transaction. In the instance with your service I would have to say that it has worked way better than any other effort that I have tried in finding employment. I have spent way too much on programs that only resulted in one disappointment after another. I have tried hard mailings, calling companies, newspaper ads and the Internet. Now at wits end I tried your service. I have to admit that your service has already resulted in more positive responses than all those other methods combined. I do feel that I need to say a big THANK YOU.

After an aggressive 7 month job search and receiving no response after submitting my resume and cover letter to countless businesses, my brother told me about your company. Thanks to you I was hired for a position that was perfect for me. The new position represented an increase in salary and benefits. I can't thank you enough.

I cannot put into words how grateful I am for you and your service. I accepted a job on Friday and I'm sure that your "ears were ringing" over the weekend as I told the whole world how fantastic your Organization is, and what you did for me. Thank you so much for all you did for me, it was miraculous to see the results you provided for me.

This was an easy to use site, that sends my resume to numerous companies so I don't have to send it to each one individually. You saved me a TON of time.

I felt compelled to write you this letter. I lost my last position due to management layoffs. It is not often in this high tech world that a service really delivers what they say they do. I have paid over and over again for a service that sends out my resume to many recruiters and companies with very little or no results at all. What a waste of money on my part. Then I found your service and gave it a try. The results were outstanding. I have landed a position at a major company with a great benefits package and more than I was earning before. I am now making over 100K a year. Your company put me in touch with the people I needed to sell myself to.
