What Is Employment-Based Immigration?

Whether you're an individual from abroad seeking employment in the United States, or a U.S. enterprise in need of international talent, the process to secure approval for work and residency in the country can be challenging. The USCIS provides multiple avenues for foreign individuals possessing skills and talent that contribute significantly to the work landscape in America. This is where employment-based immigration becomes a pivotal part of the U.S. industry and the country's progress. Andres G. Hernandez, an adept immigration law attorney based in Missouri and Arizona, can evaluate your situation and guide you through securing proper visas and work permits essential to fulfilling your aspirations. 


With the rise of globalization and technological advancements, employers in the United States are increasingly seeking out foreign individuals with specialized skills and experience. This demand for international talent has led to an increase in employment-based immigration, which allows U.S. businesses to sponsor foreign workers for permanent residency or temporary work visas.


However, navigating through the complex and ever-changing immigration laws can be overwhelming. That's where our team at Hernandez Law Firm comes in. Our experienced attorneys have a deep understanding of the intricacies of employment-based immigration and can provide you with personalized guidance throughout the process.

Immigration-Eligible Employment Visas

Not every work-related visa guarantees the recipient permanent residency; however, the EB- series of visas does. If you qualify for one of these, you could eventually acquire a green card. Are you a professional holding an advanced degree or possess exceptional ability in your field? You may be eligible for an EB2 visa. However, unless your employer demonstrates that your work is in the United States’ national interest, they need to prove that no other U.S. workers possess the same qualifications. Also, skilled workers and individuals with baccalaureate degrees might be eligible for EB3-1 and EB3-2 visas, given that no American workers hold the same qualifications. Furthermore, managers and executives aiming to work for a company affiliated with their current employer, having worked for a year at least in the manager or executive capacity in the past three years, may apply for an EB1-3 visa. Andres G. Hernandez, an Immigration Law attorney based in Missouri and Arizona, can help you interpret your eligibility for these visas. Arrange a meeting with Mr. Hernandez to gather more information.

Non-Immigration Employment Visas

Even if you're unable to apply for an immigration-eligible visa, you might have the opportunity to enter the U.S. to work should you meet the criteria for one of the many temporary employment visas on offer. These visas are denoted by the letters that form the official designation of each visa: B, E, H, L, O, P, R, and TN. Be it temporary high-skilled workers, major employees transferring to a U.S. branch temporarily, individuals with extraordinary abilities in arts, sciences, education, athletics, or business, individuals from Canada or Mexico belonging to certain professions seeking temporary work in the U.S., or individuals needing to visit the U.S. to conduct business without seeking U.S. employment, you may be eligible.


Andres G. Hernandez can go over your qualifications to see if you stand a chance for a non-immigration visa. If you're interested in pursuing a short-term entry into the U.S. for work or business purposes, Hernandez is here to help. Reach out to his office today.
