Short-Term Business Visitors

If you only need to be in the United States for a short time, you may be able to get a short-term business visitor visa (B-1). The B-1 visa allows you to conduct limited types of business for a specified length of time. Because it is a visitor visa, it does not require employer sponsorship. B-1 visa holders may conduct limited business activities, such as negotiating contracts, attending professional conventions, or settling estates. If you will be conducting more extensive business or need to stay in the United States for a longer period of time, you will likely need a visa that is sponsored by an employer. 

Non-Immigration Visas Sponsored By an Employer

A non-immigration visa is one that is not intended to lead to permanent residency (“green card” status). Instead, an employer sponsors you for a visa of limited duration, with the intent that you will return to your home country before the visa expires. There are several different types of non-immigration employment visas. H-1B visas are used for those in specialty occupations, while L-1 visas are used for employees of foreign companies that are affiliates of American companies. O-1 visas are for workers who are “extraordinary in their field.” There are many different categories, and it is important to apply for the correct category to avoid costly delays in the immigration process.

Immigration Visas Sponsored By an Employer

Immigration employment visas are designed to lead to a green card. The employer sponsors the worker to enter the country on an employment visa, and after entering the United States, the employee may obtain permanent residence (a green card). These EB-1 visas require the immigrant to have “extraordinary ability” in their fields. They can also be available to multinational executives or those with advanced degrees (so long as the U.S. employment requires the immigrant to actually use that degree). These visas can be more difficult to obtain. They can also lead to long-term immigration status, so this can be a good option for employees who intend to continue working in the United States on a long-term basis.
