Work visa 1- B

H1-B is a work visa. You are going to the USA to work, and without a position you will not be able to stay there. This is a good option for people with a sought-after, flexible profession, good specialists and scientists.

1. You have the right to stay in the United States and work for this employer (and no other!) for up to three years. The name of the company where you work is printed directly on the visa itself;
2. After three years, you have the right to file a second petition to extend this period for another three years;
3. After a maximum of six years, you are required to leave the United States if you have not received a GreenCard by then;
4. You do not have the right to work or receive any outside income from another company other than the one registered on your visa. If you are fired, you must find another employer within 14 days who is willing to file a new petition for you;
5. You can change your employer. First you need to find someone new to file the petition for you. This is much easier than getting your very first visa;
6. Members of your family – spouse, minor children – can fly with you and live there. They will not have the right to work there and will have dependent visas – H4.

Requirements for obtaining a US work visa 

1. Higher education – the equivalent of a Bachelor’s Degree in the USA;
2. If there is no higher education, they require five years of work in their specialty;
3. An employer who wants to hire you and agrees to sponsor you, file a petition for you and pay the appropriate fees.

Of the top 30 H1-B sponsoring companies in 2016, 13 companies are based in India. There are five European, one Japanese, and the rest from the USA. American companies are not in the top five, and their filing numbers are lower than their Indian counterparts.

Microsoft Corp., which hosts the largest number of foreign workers among US companies, submitted 5,077 applications. But the Indian company Infosys Limited wanted to bring five times more people via H1-B – 25,872 people.

Good news: US companies are still looking for talented employees to bring via H1-B. Microsoft , Google , Amazon , IBM , Intel and Apple submit thousands of applications for foreigners.

The top 30 sponsors of H1-B visas also include the “big four” auditors: Deloitte (UK), Ernst & Young (UK) and KPMG (Netherlands). PwC (UK) fell just short of the top 30, taking 31st place. There are also banks, universities, medical centers, the Walmart supermarket chain , young and dynamic companies like Tesla , Ebay and Paypal .
