Strategic Solutions For Employment-Based Immigration
The U.S. business immigration system is highly complex. Companies and professionals face constant legal hurdles. At Pastor & Associates P.C., we provide representation to achieve your business goals. Our main office is located in New York, but we serve clients nationwide.
Experienced Representation For Work Visas
Facing the corporate immigration maze requires extreme precision. A single mistake can derail a career or a business operation. You need an experienced visa attorney to guide you safely. Our team regularly manages highly sophisticated USCIS employment petitions. Here is a look at some common visa categories we handle:
- EB-1 visa criteria: We secure approvals for individuals with extraordinary abilities, outstanding professors and multinational executives. An EB-1 immigration lawyer builds a massive wall of proof to win your case.
- E-1 and E-2 treaty visas: We help investors and traders from eligible treaty countries establish their enterprises in the U.S.
- Industries and qualifying investments: We assist clients across multiple sectors. We help you demonstrate that your financial investments qualify for treaty status.
Success on an extraordinary ability claim requires substantial proof of that ability. We build our cases with your achievements in awards, publications and professional commendations. We process complex petitions for other immigrant workers in alternative categories, and you may require an EB-2 visa attorney for exceptional ability and national interest waiver claims.
We follow rigorous foreign-worker compliance guidelines to keep your employer in the government’s good graces. If you need a skilled worker visa or are applying for a change of status, we handle the paperwork so you don’t have to, and you’ll have all the necessary employment authorization needed while your case is pending.
Common Questions About Employment-Based Visas
The ins and outs of corporate immigration law are exceptionally confusing for employers and employees alike. Chances are you’ll have a lot of questions if you are an employer seeking foreign workers, or a foreign national seeking your own visa. Our lawyers are happy to answer all your questions clearly and honestly.
What is employment-based immigration?
Employment-based immigration enables foreign workers to come to the United States to fill labor needs. There are various ways to become a legal immigrant through employment, ranging from temporary visas to full permanent residency. You will want to obtain the counsel of an H-1B visa lawyer if you’re working in temporary specialty occupations, or an employment green card lawyer if you desire a permanent stay.
How can an employer sponsor an employee for a green card?
A job must be open for extended periods without successfully finding qualified American workers for it. Employers will need to “test” the U.S. Job market to see if any are found. If the Department of Labor approves a PERM Labor Certification through an experienced PERM labor certification attorney, then the employer may begin the official petition for your permanent residence.
What are the categories of employment-based visas?
We work with workers seeking all five categories of employment-based visas, including EB-1 for individuals of extraordinary ability, EB-5 for major investors and every category in between. Each one has specific requirements that different individuals meet, so let us help you determine the right category for you and the speediest way to achieve your U.S. Goals.
