Employment-Based
Immigration

The United States provides several visa options
for employers 
who wish to hire foreign national workers.

​

 

Our office can help your organization meet its growth and talent goals by sponsoring a temporary work visa for your foreign national employees, including:

 

1) local hires,

2) intracompany transfers,

3) temporary or seasonal workers, or

4) foreign trainees 

 

Attorney Alexander Carrion understands how to get a working visa for USA and can guide you through the work visa USA sponsorship process. A work visa is different from an employment-based green card.

 

A work visa has a temporary duration and limits the employment activities in which the visa holder may engage.

 

An Employment-based green card provides the holder with permanent residence with unlimited lawful employment opportunities. Our attorneys have a thorough understanding of the work visa process and have helped numerous organizations sponsor their foreign national employees for all available work visas in the United States:

​

U.S. immigration law provides aliens with a variety of ways to become lawful permanent residents (get a Green Card) through employment in the United States. These employment-based (EB) “preference immigrant” categories include:

  • First preference (EB-1) – priority workers

    • Aliens with extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics;

    • Outstanding professors and researchers; or

    • Certain multinational managers and executives.

  • Second preference (EB-2) – aliens who are members of the professions holding advanced degrees or who have exceptional ability (including requests for national interest waivers). 

  • Third preference (EB-3) – skilled workers, professionals, or other workers.
