Details On A Green Card VisaObtaining a green card visa to enter the United States gives you the right to live and work here in the country as well. The H1B work visa is the official and primary USA work visa/permit, and it is available to people from all over the world. The details regarding obtaining the visa are not extremely complex and will be detailed herein, including who is eligible, what companies are able to apply for the petition, and the terms of the visa. Once you understand the processes listed, you should feel comfortable investigating getting your own green card visa. The United Stated government introduced the H1B visa to offer and enable highly skilled international professionals as well as giving a green card student visa to international students from all around the world the opportunity to live and work in the U.S. It is to the United States' benefit to have professionals living and working in the country who contribute to the advancement of technology and/or medicine. The H1B visa is the most sought after U.S. work visa, and the United States Citizen and immigration and naturalization services requires every foreign national to obtain a visa to legally work in the United States. One of the main advantages of the H1B visa is that it is a dual intent visa, which means a person can apply for a green card to be a permanent resident. As such, it started being called the "green card visa." To start the process of obtaining an H1B visa one must either find an employer or have an employer find you who is eligible to file a petition for you. This is called an H1B sponsorship job with a United States sponsoring company. The sponsoring company will need to file an application to the United States Citizen and Immigration Naturalization Service for the work visa; that is, the immigrant herself can not apply. To qualify for the H1B Visa Program, one must work in a specialty occupation such as one of the following core specialty occupations, which include intellectual technology, computing, finance, accounting, banking, marketing, advertising, public relations, sales, recruiting, engineering (of any type), teaching, health care, medical, legal, legal work (as a lawyer), networking, telecommunications, business, management or hospitality. Check with the immigration law office to find out more about such things. The H1B visa is set to be valid for up to six years and covers the immigrant; additionally, it also allows the immigrant's spouse and children under age 21 to live in the US on their own visas, called an H4 visa. The H4 dependent visa, however, does not allow the visa holder to have a job. H4 visa holder can attend school. If a person with this designation wants to work, he or she will need to apply for his or her own work visa. You now have a good understanding about what the green card visa is, how to research and obtain a H1B visa, for how long it is valid, and what type of profession in which you are skilled. As you can see, there are qualifications and restrictions - but this is an avenue for immigrants to relocate to the United States. If you are qualified, you are well-equipped to start the process of obtaining your own green card visa and potentially gaining permanent residency. |
