USCIS H-1B Immigration Lawyer
We Can Help You Get the Right Work Visa for the Right Employee
The H-1B is a nonimmigrant classification used by a foreign worker seeking temporary employment in a specialty occupation in the United States. The government describes a specialty occupation as any work that requires specialized knowledge, including a minimum educational requirement of a bachelor’s degree. Examples of job classifications that may be considered specialty occupations include architects, engineers, scientists, mathematicians and certain business specialties.
Nearly 10 years of helping employers and professionals succeed
Ames Immigration has been helping employers and professionals successfully seek H-1B status for employment for nearly 10 years. Our clients include hospitals, manufacturers, research corporations, engineering companies, and other corporations who employ those with a bachelor's degree or higher. We also serve many F-1 students who are completing Optional Practical Training and have the opportunity to change their status to H-1B so that they may continue to live and work in the U.S. Many H-1B visa holders go on to obtain their green cards through their H-1B employer in the PERM labor certification process. Our firm can guide you through the labor certification process, even after the expiration of the H-1B visa.
