Most foreign workers can only secure jobs with companies that have the proper U.S. Department of Labor Certification, verifying that there are insufficient workers with this skillset within the United States, and the hiring does not take a job away from a U.S. citizen.

All jobs available through HIRINGWORLD are approved U.S. Department of Labor certified jobs or jobs that have submitted a U.S. Department of Labor application and are waiting on government approval.

A. Temporary, Non-Immigrant Visa

H VISAS: These visas are for people who want to work in the United States for a fixed period of time.

H VISAS

H-1B Visas are specific to a professional or academic field or unique expertise for people who have a minimum of a college degree or higher, or the equivalent in work experience. These visas have a residency cap of three years. Usually, this visa applies to occupations such as IT, finance, engineering, and architecture.

H-2A and H-2B Visas are for seasonal work, or for a period of time based on demand or need. This visa applies to temporary workers in an agriculture (H-2A) or non-agricultural (H-2B) setting. Generally, these visas are valid for up to 1 year and can be extended yearly up to a maximum of 3 years.

B. Permanent (Immigrant) Workers

If you have the right job skills, you and your spouse and children can apply for the roughly 140,000 employment-based green cards available each year. Permanent residence in the U.S.A. is available with the right combination of education, expertise, eligibility, and skill sets.

SECOND PREFERENCE EB-2

EB-2 Visas are attainable by professionals with an advanced degree or foreign equivalent;  by people who can demonstrate at least 10 years of experience in a specific required field; or by people whose employment is in the national interest of the U.S.A

THIRD PREFERENCE EB-3

EB-3 Visas are attainable by those holding a bachelor’s degree, or foreign equivalent, as well as skilled and unskilled labourers who have a non-temporary offer of employment from a U.S. employer.

How long does it take to get a Work Visa? Normally, it takes 90 days, but with the current U.S.A. Citizenship and Immigration Services backlog it is taking 5 to 7 months.

Do I have to leave the U.S.A. when my Work Visa expires?

This will depend on your situation. Your authorized period status does not end when your visa expires. When you were admitted to the United States, your authorized period of stay was recorded on your admission stamp or paper Form I-94, called an Arrival/Departure Record. However, you require a valid visa to enter the U.S.A. H1B, H2A & H2B workers should leave immediately, however, a 10-day grace period may be granted beyond the expiration of the employment authorization.

May I bring my family with me to the U.S.A.?
The type of job and the associated government visa will determine if your spouse and children are able to come to the U.S.A. Normally, permanent (immigrant) worker jobs allow spouses and families to join the immigrant employee. With temporary non-Immigrant visas, spouses and family members need to file for their own visas before coming to the U.S.A.

Can I change jobs on a Work Visa?
H1B, H2A & H2B work visas can’t be changed from one employer to another. However, you can change to another employer during your stay for your next job, once your current visa expires.

Can I become a permanent resident if I get a job in the U.S.A.?
You may be eligible to become a lawful permanent resident of the United States based on a permanent offer of employment in the U.S.A.
