Alcorn Immigration Law provides a variety of immigration legal services to employers seeking foreign employees to fill specialty occupations.

H-1B and Equivalents

Employers can petition for an H-1B Visa for Specialty Occupations for foreign nationals to fill jobs requiring specialized skills that are difficult to fill with American workers. An international entrepreneur’s startup can also petition for an H-1B on behalf of its founder. Extensions, amendments, and H-1Bs for employees transferring from another company and employees to consult at client sites are also possible. Country-specific versions include:

• E-3 Visa for Certain Specialty Occupation Professionals from Australia

• H-1B1 Visa for Chileans and Singaporeans

H-2

Employers can hire foreign employees to fill seasonal jobs by petitioning for the following H visas:

• H-2A Visa for Agricultural Workers

• H-2B Visa for Temporary Non-Agricultural Workers

H-3

A company or organization may petition for an H-3 Visa for Nonimmigrant Trainees for a foreign national to receive training or experience unavailable in the foreign national’s home country.

H-4

The spouse and dependent children of H-1A, H-1B, H-2A, H-2B, and H-3 visa holders are eligible for an H-4 Visa for Skilled Worker Dependents. Some spouses are eligible to work permits with an Employment Authorization Document.
