If you are a foreign national looking to enter the United States lawfully and obtain employment Florida Law Group may be able to help. A popular resource available to immigrants looking for employment in the U.S. is the H1B visa program. The H1B visa allows entry to the United States for the purpose of working for a U.S. employer. The visa can last for a duration of six years and can also allow your spouse and children to reside in the United States for the same amount of time under a H-4 visa. The Tampa immigration lawyers at Florida Law Group can help draft your application and supervise your file to help ensure approval.
The H1B visa imposes stern requirements which applicants must comply with. For example, only foreign immigrants qualified for a specialty occupation may be eligible for a H1B visa. A specialty occupation is one that requires the theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge. Some examples of a specialty occupation include: accountant, scientist, lawyer, architect, engineer, and computer analyst. In order to qualify for one of these occupations the foreign national typically must have at least a bachelor's degree. However, a Tampa immigration attorney could help a foreign national get approved without the requisite bachelor's degree. For instance, under the U.S. immigration law, an applicant could get approved with a combination of college course work plus three years work experience for each year of education needed to complete the degree. Fortunately, the immigration attorneys at Florida Law Group have vast experience with H1B visa applications and may assist foreign nationals with the application process.
Applying for a H1B visa can be a complex and daunting process, but don't worry our Tampa immigration attorneys will answer all of your questions and provide you with competent legal advice. We will advise you on all of the required documentation and draft your application for submission. If you are not qualified for a H1B visa one of our Tampa immigration lawyers may be able to recommend alternative opportunities for legal admission into the United States.
