H-1B1 Visa Immigration Services<\/h1>\n

The H-1B1 visa is similar to the corporate H-1B and is for immigrant or non-immigrant persons in “specialty occupations”. This new category was created by the U.S.-Chile Free Trade Agreement and the U.S.-Singapore Free Trade Agreement.<\/p>\n

In order to qualify for H-1B1 classification, US immigration law dictates that the applicant must have theoretical and practical application of specialized knowledge and must have at least a US bachelor’s degree or its equivalent AND the job sought must require at least a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent. Because this is not a self-petitioning category, the applicant must have a sponsoring employer in the US.<\/p>\n

The spouse and unmarried children below the age of 21 are allowed to accompany or join the H-1B1 worker as H-4 dependents. However, they cannot work unless they qualify for a work visa. H-4 dependents can enroll and attend schools in the U.S. without obtaining a student visa.<\/p>\n

\u00a0H-1B1 Visa Steps<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Because the H-1B1 visa requires a U.S. sponsor in order to work in the US, the applicant must obtain a written job offer from a U.S.employer. Unlike the H-1B, there is no need for the employer to file an I-129 Petition with the USCIS in the U.S. However, like the H-1B, a prevailing wage needs to be obtained and a Labor Condition Attestation (LCA) needs to be filed.<\/p>\n

Documents required for H-1B1 Visas<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Both the applicant and the employer are required to submit supporting documents for the H-1B1 visa.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0applicant is required to submit the following documents when applying for an H-1B visa abroad:<\/strong><\/p>\n
