美国留学签证申请那些事,F1、H1B、OPT、CPT讲解。

美国留学签证申请那些事,F1、H1B、OPT、CPT讲解。

去美国留学学习然后毕业工作,在签证申请方面都会有很多手续要处理,合法身份证明也很重要,不然一不留神就会被遣返。

那么关于F1、H1B、OPT、CPT这些签证我们一定要了解清楚,在合适的时间里申请到才能让留美的大家少些烦恼。

今天这篇文章就带大家来看看这些签证到底是怎么回事。

1、F1美国F1签证签发给全日制在美国读书的学生,没有名额限制,持F1签证可以在校园内工作,如果要校外工作则需特别批准。

如果你已经获得美国学校的录取通知书,那么你可以向美国驻海外使领馆或移民局申请F1非移民签证。

不过,这些学校必须是获得美国移民局认可、有资格招收外籍学生的学校。

2、H1BH-1B类别签证是一种非移民类工作签证,发放给具有专业技能的外国人,适用于从事“专业职位”的专业人士,其职位的最低入门级要求是要有学士学位或同等学历。

如果该外国公民以前未持有过H-1B 签证,则必须遵守每年的法定配额(也称为每年的“H-1B 配额”)。

该配额允许每个财政年度发放总共不超过8.5万份 H-1B 签证。

对于拥有学士学位或美国同等学历的留学生,共有6.5万份签证配额,同时,美国为拥有美国高学位(美国硕士或更高学历)的个人增加了另外2万张签证的配额。

3、OPTOPT,全称Optional Practical Training,即美国F1学生签证毕业后的实习期。

持有F1签证的学生在毕业之后有12个月的OPT时间,这段时间有工作许可,可以为任何公司服务,但要求工作内容必须跟专业有关,这段时间基本不受限制,可以在美国停留。

如果国际生在毕业后60天内仍未申请到OPT,就必须离开美国。

普通留学美国持F1签证的学生是不可以在美国全职工作的,毕业以后,学生可以在相关专业领域寻找实习工作单位,申请OPT拿到移民局发放的EAD(Employment Authorization Document)才可以全职上班。

美国留学H,1B工作签证的申请及费用介绍

美国留学H,1B工作签证的申请及费用介绍

美国留学H,1B工作签证的申请及费用介绍对于很多美国留学的国际生来说,在结束了在美国的学习之后,即将面临将自己的学生签证(F1签证)转换到工作签证(H-1B)的问题。

不少学生对H-1B签证不太了解,下面威久留学专家为大家介绍美国留学H-1B工作签证的详细情况。

美国签证最新申请美国移民局在公告中表示,2016年4月1日起将接受H-1B工作签证的申请。

今年国会批准的名额照例是6.5万个一般名额和2万个预留给拥有硕士以上学位申请者的名额。

根据往年形势,开放申请5个工作日内收件数量就将超过实际名额,因此移民局将在开放申请后5个工作日内收件,然后进行抽签。

由于数据录入需要时间,移民局表示将保证在完成抽签后,最晚5月16日开始进行“加急”H-1B申请案的审核。

美国H-1B工作签证费用在申请H-1B的费用方面,移民局进行了说明,雇主为雇员申请H-1B时都需要交纳325美元的基本申报费和500美元的防伪费。

申请费方面,公司员工超过25人的需要交纳1500美元,不足25人的交纳750美元。

根据2015年新法案,所工作公司员工超过50人且其中一半及以上是持有工作签证的雇员,还需交纳附加费4000美元。

在新法案通过前,这个费用是2000美元。

这项规定也适用于“跳槽”或工作签证3年期满后延期。

要求加急申请的将在15天之内得到申请结果,费用为1225美元;但是,移民局此前已经多次说明,申请“加急”无助于提高中签率。

根据今天的公告,加急申请中签后,得到结果的“15天”将最晚从5月16日起算。

近年来,随着经济复苏而名额没有变化,H-1B的申请形势一年比一年紧张。

2015财年,允许收件的1周时间内,移民局共收到了17.25万份申请;2016财年,这个数字是23.3万。

由于经济的进一步复苏、理工科毕业生OPT实习期延长、往年“积压”今年再申请等因素,料想2017财年的申请数字“只多不少”。

美国毕业后工作签证

美国毕业后工作签证

美国毕业后工作签证美国的毕业生工作签证有多种类型,本文将重点介绍H-1B签证和OPT签证。

H-1B签证是一种由美国移民局发放的非移民工作签证,用于雇佣高度专业化的外国人。

它通常适用于毕业生在美国获得工作机会的情况。

申请H-1B签证需要以下条件:1. 毕业生必须拥有与所从事职位相关的本科或更高学历。

2. 雇主必须与毕业生签订合同,提供薪资和福利,并证明无法在美国找到合适的本土员工。

3. 雇主需要向劳工部门申请工作许可,以确保薪资达到或超过行业标准。

另外,H-1B签证有一定的限额,每年只能发放一定数量的签证。

因此,申请者需要在规定的时间内向移民局提交申请,以争取签证名额。

另一种常见的工作签证是OPT签证(Optional Practical Training)。

OPT是允许持有F-1学生签证的毕业生在毕业后在美国工作的一种临时工作许可。

OPT签证有两种类型:Pre-Completion OPT(毕业前)和Post-Completion OPT(毕业后)在Pre-Completion OPT期间,学生可以在毕业前获得的相关工作经验。

这种签证期间为每周20小时,允许学生在学校所在地的实习或兼职工作。

Post-Completion OPT是一种针对毕业后工作的签证,持续时间为12个月。

在这个期间毕业生可以在美国全职工作,获取更多的实际工作经验。

可以选择延长OPT签证的持续时间,例如STEM-OPT扩展计划,允许持有STEM(科学,技术,工程,数学)学位的学生延长OPT签证时间。

这个扩展计划可以延长17个月。

无论是H-1B签证还是OPT签证,申请者需要满足一系列条件并提供相关材料。

例如,提交雇主提供的工作机会证明,详细说明所从事职位的具体要求等。

申请者需要详细了解相关的要求并确保提供准确和完整的申请材料。

总之,美国的毕业生工作签证提供了一种在美国获得工作机会的途径。

无论是H-1B签证还是OPT签证,都需要申请者满足一系列的条件并提供相关材料。

美国h1b签证多久可以申请绿卡,H1B工作签证如何转为绿卡

美国h1b签证多久可以申请绿卡,H1B工作签证如何转为绿卡

美国h1b签证多久可以申请绿卡,H1B⼯作签证如何转为绿卡美国h1b签证多久可以申请绿卡,⽽H1B⼯作签证⼜该如何转为绿卡呢?想要了解更多关于美国h1b签证多久可以申请绿卡,H1B⼯作签证如何转为绿卡的知识,跟着店铺⼩编⼀起看看吧。

如果拥有H1B签证后,需要多久才可以获得绿卡或成为美国公民?湾区租公寓⾄少1500⼑以上,⼀般的要2000以上。

买车很便宜。

绿卡问题:先申请劳⼯纸,由公司将你的岗位在美国国内作招聘⼴告,看有没有美国⼈愿意⼲,过三个⽉后没有美国⼈来应聘的,美国劳⼯部开始接受公司的申请,审查通过后发给你劳⼯证。

公司向移民局提供公司概况和你的劳⼯证为你申报I-140表(既移民申请表)移民局审查同意批回来后,开始排号申报I-485表,即转换⾝份的申请表。

485表批准后,你临时⾝份就变成了可以永久在美居住。

也就是取得了绿卡。

这个⼿续⼀般都是公司给办。

从申请劳⼯纸到I-140表批准⼀般须半年时间,转换⾝份的排队因每年有⼈数限制要等的时间较长,不过如果I-140表批准后,即使过了六年,也可以⽆限制的申请延期,再美边⼯作,边等待绿卡下来。

劳⼯纸→I-140表(移民申请表)→I-485表(转换⾝份申请表(即绿卡))(关键)准后可⽆限申请延期H1B⼯作签证如何转为绿卡H1B转换绿卡申请的第⼀步和H1B申请有些相似,是申请劳⼯纸,但是申请的程序要⽐H1B的申请复杂得多,⽽且周期更长。

这也可以是说绿卡转换是否成功的关键。

雇主必须进⾏⼀个招聘新员⼯的过程。

如果没有合适的美国当地⼈来⼯作,H1B持有者的劳⼯纸申请才有可能获得批准。

劳⼯纸是在美国劳⼯部申请的。

等批准之后,才可以向美国移民局提出移民签证申请。

整个申请的难度在于劳⼯纸的申请。

如果劳⼯纸的申请已经批准了,那么移民签证的申请⼀般是⽐较容易批准的。

从移民局收到申请的那⼀天起,申请⼈就开始等待签证排期了。

H1B的有效期⼀般不会超过6年。

如果六年之后,移民签证申请还在等待,那么H1B还可以再延期。

美国留学生H1B签证政策放宽介绍

美国留学生H1B签证政策放宽介绍

美国留学生H1B签证政策放宽介绍
【美国留学H1B签证政策放宽介绍】
上世纪九十年代中后期新经济高潮期,美国每年H1B签证额度高达19.5万个,许多印度和中国的电脑工程师借此来到美国工作。

H1B额度被削减为6.5万个。

当时造成许多持这类签证的台湾和中国工程师在被裁员后,不得不回国。

许多留学生也因此无法在美国找到工作。

后在产业界压力之下,国会每年批准额外两万个H1B签证给在美国获得硕士学位的外国留学生。

即便如此,名额还是供不应求名额三个多月即已告罄。

由于这些签证年年用罄,因此硅谷高科技界一再呼吁美国政府增加名额,以提高美国业者竞争力。

高科技业界表示,美国本土的高级科技人才供不应求,在全球化脚步下,必需仰赖外籍人士来与世界各国竞争。

我们同意总统的看法,当我们鼓励全球最杰出和潜力的科学家、工程师和技术人员添补这个国家缺少的重要技术工作职位时,美国就会更具有竞争力。

我们期望未来一年与总统及国会合作,使得H1B签证计划更适合于国家的经济需要。

什么是美国护士工签H1B?H1B工作签证在美国是一种无阻碍签证,持这种签证来美国的人不能永久居住在美国。

H1B工作签证有效期为3年,到期可以再延长3年,总共最多停留6年。

谁可以申请H1B工作签证?第一,H1B签证的基本要求之一是申请者必须拥有四年的美国学士学位/更高学位/具有同等学历。

如果非美国学位是3年的学士学位,有3年在相同或类似领域的工作经验可以被视为一年的额外教育,这样的情况也符合H1B的申请资格。

第二,这种签证只签发给那些从事专业工作的人。

H1B工作签证申请步骤(1)找到雇主。

这个雇主必须是雇佣你并愿意为你在美国工作提供签证担保的美国雇主。

(2)雇主向劳动部门提交L.C.A。

L.C.A是“劳动条件申请”(Labor Condition Application)的缩写,它向劳动部提供有关工资、地点和工作条件的信息。

通过完成这一步骤,雇主向政府证明申请人将获得与工作地点的现行工资条件相同的工资,并且该工作不会损害其他已被雇用的员工。

基本上,L.C.A必须满足D.O.L(Department of Labor)设置的一些要求。

一旦L.C.A 获得批准,我们就进入第三步。

(3)提交I 129申请表这里面包括教育费用、工作经验证明文件、培训证书、专业资质文件、申请人简历、雇佣协议等。

(4)抽签提交申请之后进入抽签流程。

很多申请者会停留在这一步止步不前。

每年报名人数远超工签名额,抽中了就能拿到工签,抽不中了只能继续等待。

但如果你的职业是护士,想要拿到工签去美国工作,情况就大不一样了。

安琪的美国护士工签项目:有RN证书和语言合格之后,就可以开始雇主面试,面试成功后,由雇主递交资料。

一年之内就可以取得签证,顺利赴美啦!(5)工签办理到自己国籍所在国家的美国大使馆或领事馆办理签证。

关于H1B工作签证的其他问题拿到美国工签后,可以带你的直系亲属即配偶和孩子来这里。

他们可以学习,但不允许工作。

家属办理的签证类型为H4签证。

2022年美国h1b新政策规定美国h1b签证新政策

2022年美国h1b新政策规定美国h1b签证新政策

2022年美国h1b新政策规定美国h1b签证新政策美国移民局(USCIS)发布了一则最新规定,旨在改进职业移民(EB1、EB2、EB3)的相关规定,并且修改了相关法案,帮助美国雇主更好地雇用和留住高科技外国员工。

其中最大的亮点是H1B持有者在失去工作后,将有长达60天的宽限期寻找新的雇主或者延长合法身份。

这项法案将从2022年1月17日起生效。

这项法案主要包括:更好地帮助美国雇主雇用和留住高科技外国员工(I-140移民申请表获批者),同时为这些员工提供了稳定性和工作灵活度。

这项规则提高了这些员工发展自己职业生涯的可能性,他们可以接受升职,在公司内部改变目前职位,或者改变雇主,以及寻求其他就业机会。

确保I-140获批者的移民申请继续有效(只要I-140申请获批或调整身份申请在180天以上),不会因为雇主撤回申请或公司倒闭等其他因素而被DHS自动作废申请。

只要I-140申请未因欺骗、材料不实等原因被作废,申请人可在调整身份、申请合法永久居住权过程中保留其优先日期(prioritydate),方便申请人在此期间升职、换雇主,而不用担心失去移民签证排期。

允许具有E-3(澳洲公民工作签证),H-1B,H-1B1(智利和新加坡公民工作签证),L-1(跨国经理人签证)或O-1(特殊人才签证)非移民身份的高科技员工(包括适用于任何宽限期内)在以下情况下申请就业许可(employmentauthorization):是获批的I-140表格申请的主要受益人;其优先日期没有获得移民签证的发放;可以证明存在令人信服的情况下,DHS可以自行决定颁发就业许可。

注:这种就业许可只能在有限的情况下更新,并且必须每年申请延长。

为E-1(贸易商签证),E-2(投资人签证),E-3,L-1和TN(墨西哥和加拿大公民工作签证)非移民签证申请人设定两个长达10天的宽限期,为其准备开始在美国工作、离开美国或以其他方式维持合法身份提供充分时间。

OPT是很多在美国的中国留学生在毕业之后继续留在美国的常用方式。

申请人可以在学生签证到期之后利用OPT的合法身份一边实习,一边寻找合适的工作。

OPT的6大问题释疑1. OPT的时间会被毕业前的实习占用吗?OPT严格意义上分为Pre-completion和Post-completion两种,即毕业前和毕业后。

Pre-completionOPT必须在本专业学习满一年以后才可以开始,且必须是做兼职,每周工作不可超过20小时,其工作天数也会计入OPT总时间。

不难发现Pre-completion OPT的要求和CPT是有许多相似之处的,所以作为学生来讲,毕业前最好使用CPT,以节约OPT的宝贵时间。

2. OPT期间只能做一份工作?NO! 在40小时/每周的法定工作时间内,你可以做多份兼职工作或一份全职工作;换工作也是相对灵活的,只要累计不工作时间保证在90天之内,都可以在EAD卡的保障下合法工作。

H-1b Visa Petition General Steps/visas/h1b/h1b-visa-requirements.html1. 1 Discuss the wage and position /OESQuick.aspx /h1b-minimum-wage-or-lca-prevailing-wage-for-a-position-in-an-area-in-usa/1.2 The employer must demonstrate that the position is one requiring a professional in a specialty occupation and that the intended employee has the required qualifications. Definition of a specialty occupation is an that requires a theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowle dge, and the attainment of a bachelor’s or higher degree in the specific specialty or its equivalent as a minimum for entry into the occupation.2. Employer’s requirementsA U.S . employer is a person, firm, corporation, contractor or other association or organization in the United States with an IRS tax identification number. There must be an employer-employee relationship, as indicated by the fact that the employer may hire, fire, pay, supervise or otherwise control the work of the employee.In addition to showing that both the job requirements and the applican’s credentials or experience are “professional”, the employer must also meet the Department of Labor (“DOL”) requirements and file Form I-129 (H-1B petition”) with the USCIS for permission to employ the foreign national.Prior to filing the H-1B petition with the USCIS, an employer must file a labor condition application (“LCA”) with the Department of Labor. Employers affirm in the labor condition application that the wage offered to the applicant is at least as high as that paid by the employer for the same type of job, and the number equals or exceeds the prevailing wage for the job in the same geographical area; that working conditions will not adversely affect those workers similarly employed; that there is no strike or lockout at the employer’s premises and that the notice of the LCA has been given to current employees.3. After the company has successfully filed a LCA, they are free to apply for the visa. An employer is charged with the responsibility of filing for the visa on behalf of the employee as they are not allowed to self-petition.4. Waiting for approval by the USCIS is a torturous task for most. There are variousf actors the USCIS considers in order to approve a person’s H-1B visa. These factors may include:∙The person the employer wants to hire that is their level of education and expertise ∙The position the employer offers in the sense that it must require a degree holder for example, one cannot apply for a H-1B visa for the position of a cleaning lady.∙The employer is also a key factor since the company must be financially capable and be of adequate size in order for their employee to be granted a H-1B visa.Can my company make H1B visa applications?Any US employer can sponsor an H1B petition, provided it has an IRS Tax Number, also known as an IRS Number or Tax ID Number. This number is needed for obtaining approval of the Labor Condition Application (LCA), which is an essential preliminary to the H1B petition itself. However, employers should take note that sponsoring an H1B petition involves them making a number of undertakings, enforceable by heavy civil and criminal penalties: These undertakings are:-∙To pay the H1B worker at least the higher of the wage paid to similar workers in the same company or the "prevailing wage" (usually determined by the relevant State Employment Services Agency) for the occupation in the area the worker will be employed;∙That the recruitment of the H1B worker(s) will not adversely affect the conditions of the employer's US-resident employees in similar jobs;∙That there is no strike or lockout occurring at the time the Labor Condition Application is submitted, and that the approved LCA will not be used to support petitions for H1B aliens to be employed at the site of any subsequent strike or lockout;∙That a copy of the LCA form will be given to the H1B worker and either given to the bargaining representative of employees in similar occupations or (if there is no bargaining representative) posted in 2 conspicuous locations for at least 10 days in the place the H1B alien will be working;∙To maintain records of the LCA and the H1B alien's employment for inspection by the US Department of Labor.Note that the prevailing wage is generally lower for non-profit and academic/research organizations.H1B Beneficiary EligibilityIn order to qualify for an H1B visa, the alien must demonstrate that s/he is able to work in the 'speciality occupation' for which s/he is being hired by the sponsoring employer. This can be demonstrated by:-∙Possession of a relevant US college degree;∙Possession of a non-US college degree (and, generally, 3 years' relevant high-level work experience) independently evaluated as being equivalent to a relevant US college degree;∙Possession of at least 12 years' high-level work experience, independently evaluated as being equivalent toa US college degree; or∙Possession of any relevant State or Federal license that may be required in order to practice in a particular profession.NB: If there is a requirement for a State or Federal license in order to practice any 'speciality occupation', then the alien must generally possess such a license in order to qualify for an H1B visa. For example, doctors, lawyers, accountants and similar professionals must generally have passed the relevant state licensing examination and be in all other respects qualified to practice in the State of intended employment./us/investor_h-1b.htm#fein----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How to Petition for an H-1B VisaFrom an employer perspective, H-1B eligibility is much more complex. The employer must file the petition for the visa on behalf of the employee, who is not allowed to self-petition. Every company, regardless of size or age, must petition for one of the 65,000 H-1B visasthat are made available every April 1st by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.The main factors affecting approval are:ØThe position offered. Does it require someone with at least a bachelor’s degree? For example, even if someone has a PhD, that person would not qualify for an H-1B visa based on work as a waiter.ØThe person. Does the H-1B beneficiary have a degree (or equivalent) which closely matches the company’s requirements and specific position offered? This has been an area of contention between the USCIS and practitioners of immigration law. USCIS has been requiring occupation-specific majors, while the law clearly supports granting of visas to applicants with degrees in multiple disciplines, as long as it reasonably qualifies the applicant to perform the work. For example, occupation specific degrees are required in law or medicine, but for marketing or IT positions, there are usually a number of academic disciplines which are acceptable.ØThe company. Is the company financially viable and of a sufficient size and complexity to justify hiring the H-1B candidate? Factors considered by the USCIS include the company’s stage of development, organizational complexity, ability to pay the required wage, current number of employees, gross income, and funding. Evidence provided to document company operations varies on a case-by-case basis. A comprehensive list is available in our H-1B Start Employer Questionnaire.H-1B Employer ObligationsØProtect wages in the region. Employers must pay every H-1B worker wages that are 100% of the wages paid to US workers in similar positions in the same geographical region. This wage is referred to as the prevailing wage.ØProtect wages in the workplace. Employers must pay every H-1B worker the actual wages paid to other employees in the same position, with normal variability for experience, merit, skills, etc. This wage is referred to as the actual wage.ØPost the proposed salary. Employers must post the prospective salary or the salary range for an H-1B position for 10 business days at the worksite in two conspicuous locations. Advertising required, only if the company is H-1B dependent - see below.ØProtect working conditions.Employers cannot use H-1B workers to break a strike and they must notify their U.S. workforce of the hiring of H-1B professionals.ØProvide benefits equally.Employers must provide benefits to H-1B employees in the same manner as provided to similar U.S. workers.ØFile a Labor Condition Application (LCA). Employers must file a Labor Condition Application attesting to the wages and the no-strike use of H-1B employees with the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL).ØPay the employee during benching. Employers who bench employees during non-productive status must continue to pay full salary and benefits as attested on the Labor Condition Application.ØBe subject to penalties for failures. Failure to comply with DOL regulations could result in civil penalties, a requirement to pay back wages, and even debarment from participating in key immigration programs. Audits are performed by US immigration authorities randomly.ØNo discrimination in hiring. The employer may decline employing any worker who is not legally eligible to work. Written offers should be contingent upon proof of eligibility to work for any employer in the U.S. If a candidate requests sponsorship for H-1B status, the company can decide to sponsor or not.ØReturn transportation. If an employer terminates an H1-B employee before the endof that employee’s period of authorized stay, the employer is liable for the “reasonable costs” of return transportation for the employee to his or her last country of residence. Immigration statutes and regulations suggest that the employer’s liability is limited to the reasonable cost of physically returning the H-1B employee, and does not extend to the cost of relocating family members or property.ØWithdrawal of H-1B after termination. Regulations require an H-1B employer to notify USCIS “immediately” of “any material changes in the terms and conditions of employment” affecting an H-1B employee. USCIS policy is that a termination is such a“material change.” Employers may satisfy this no tification obligation by sending a letter explaining the change or termination to USCIS office that approved the petition.H-1B Employee ObligationsØInform Lawyer of Travel. An employee who will be traveling in H-1B status should inform a lawyer in advance to make sure that all paperwork is in order and to ensure that H-1B status is still valid. He/she may need a trip to a US Embassy or Consulate abroad before returning to secure a visa stamp.ØQuitting a job is allowed. An employee may quit his/her employment in H-1B status at any time. He/she may be subject to contractual terms made specifically with the employer, outside the scope of the H-1B visa.ØLay-offs and leaving the U.S. An employee who is laid off or terminated is no longer considered to be maintaining H-1B status, despite having an I-94 document which might still be valid, on its face. The employee must leave the U.S. as quickly as possible, as is no official “grace period” or provision for continuing H-1B status while looking for another job.The Players in the H-1B Process and Their RolesA dual representation situation is created in the preparation of an H-1B petition, where our firm has the interests of both the US company petitioner and foreign national employee in mind, in representing both parties together, to obtain the desired visa from the US government.ØEmployer and employee participation. Both the US company petitioner (employer) and foreign national (employee) supply essential information to complete the needed paperwork, submitted to US immigration authorities. Paperwork includes numbered immigration forms, letters, and supporting documentation. Employer signs the immigration forms and a critical support letter, which confirms the temporary offer of employment, and summarizes eligibility for the H-1B. Employer also follows instructions from our firm to ensure compliance with applicable law surrounding hiring H-1B workers, including posting and maintenance of public access files (PAFs). Employer must update the Public Access File with information about benefits, salary changes. Information about recruitment is necessary only if the employer is dependent – see below.ØAttorney analysis and preparation. The attorney obtains the initial paperwork on a particular employee and determines if H-1B status will be viable based on information presented. The attorney informs the client about H-1B obligations and responsibilities. The attorney prepares the forms and files them with USCIS.ØDepartment of Labor. Reviews the Labor Condition Application (LCA) and certifies that the prevailing wage is being paid based on the information provided. DOL also may perform random audits to see if employer requirements in addition to the LCA disclosures are being upheld.ØUS Citizenship & Immigration Services. USCIS receives the filing and determines that the job requirements, the employee's credentials and the employer's viability are all sufficient for approval.ØDepartment of State/visits to US Embassy or Consulate abroad.If the employee is abroad after receiving approval of the petition, or is granted consular approval (as opposed to a change or extension of status) the employee must apply for an H-1B visa stamp at a US Embassy or Consulate abroad.Steps for EmployerThe Process of Sponsoring and Qualifying for an H-1B VisaThis process includes a few major components, which I will outline below:LCA application by a companyBefore an employer files for an initial petition for an H-1B visa, they have to file for a LCA with United States Department of Justice. The LCA is a form that contains statements that help protect US citizen workers due to the hiring of these new employees using the H-1B visa. It states the following; -∙The employee will be paid the prevailing wage as per their position∙The employee will receive equal benefits as other employees in the same position∙Hiring of the employee should not affect the working conditions of other employees.∙At the time of hiring, no active labor dispute or work stoppage is in place.Petition for an H-1B VisaAfter the company has successfully filed a LCA, they are free to apply for the visa. An employer is charged with the responsibility of filing for the visa on behalf of the employee as they are not allowed to self-petition. Usually, there is 65000 H-1B visas awarded each year that are up for grabs. However, 6800 visas are already set aside for Singapore and Chile while another 20000 are awarded to workers with advanced degrees such as a Mastersdegree or a PhD. After petition is done, one all has to do is wait for feedback from the USCIS. The fate of the employee then lies on the outcome of the lottery.The approving of the Visa by USCISWaiting for approval by the USCIS is a torturous task for most. There are various factors the USCIS considers in order to approve a person’s H-1B visa. These factors may include:∙The person the employer wants to hire that is their level of education and expertise∙The position the employer offers in the sense that it must require a degree holder for example, one cannot apply for a H-1B visa for the position of a cleaning lady.∙The employer is also a key factor since the company must be financially capable and be of adequate size in order for their employee to be granted a H-1B visa.Spouses/ ChildrenIn the event that the employee has a spouse and children, they are allowed to accompany the H-1B principal under H-4 status. They are not allowed to work but can study in the country.Employee ObligationsThere are various things that one has to take care of in the event that they are granted theH-1B visa.∙They have to inform their lawyer of their travel plans prior to the travelling date.∙They are allowed to quit their jobs but this may lead to termination of their visa∙In case of a layoff, their H-1B status is lost and they have to leave the country immediately as there is no grace period provided.The cost of acquiring an H-1B VisaIn order for one to acquire this visa, they must be prepared to meet the cost between $2000-$4000 to walk you through the maze and complete all the government filings.In case you are looking to either sponsor or acquire an H-1B visa, it would be helpful to understand all the steps mentioned above and thenvisit LawTrades for a free consultation with an experienced startupimmigration attorney.Specialty Occupation RequirementsThe occupation has to be a specialty occupation that generally requires a bachelor's degree or higher degree(or its equivalent) as a minimum for entry into the occupation. Fashion models of distinguished merit or ability may also apply for the H-1B program.A position that would normally not require a bachelor's degree may qualify as a specialty occupation if the position is so complex or unique that only an individual with a degree can perform the requisite duties. A position with specific duties that are so specialized and complex that the knowledge required to perform them is usually associated with the attainment of a bachelor’s or higher degree may also qualify as a specialty occupation.Positions that are normally considered professional positions would most likely qualify as a specialty occupation.Examples of specialty occupations include: architects, engineers, professors, teachers, researchers, medical professionals, dietitians, physicians, nurses, computer professionals, accountants, attorneys, social workers, economists, librarians and other professionals.Educational RequirementsThe employer must show that the alien worker meets the specific educational requirements to be engaged in the specialty occupation. As a general rule, the alien worker must possess a Bachelor's or higher degree from an accredited college or university and the degree must be a requirement to qualify for the specialty occupation.If the alien worker was awarded his/her degree from an institution not located in the U.S., that degree must be evaluated to determine if it can be consideredequivalent to a U.S. awarded degree. If the alien possesses a Bachelor’s degree or its equivalent, specific work experience is not required.If an alien does not meet the educational requirements, experience or training may be substituted, whereby three years of professional experience is considered equivalent to one year of college education (every 3 year of work experience = 1 year of University / College education). Pleasesee Using Experience to Meet the Advanced Degree Requirement for more details.For example:Neil is from India and has been working as a network analyst for more than 6 years. He only has an Associate’s degree with 2 years of college education, but wishes to apply for H-1B status so that he can work in the United States as a network analyst. The minimum educational requirement has been met because every 3 years of related work experience can substitute for 1 year of college education, and his 6 years of work experience make up for the 2 year shortage in terms of educational requirements. Therefore he may apply for an H-1B visa.Furthermore, if state law requires a worker(such as doctors, dentists, attorneys, CPAs, registered nurses) to obtain a license or professional certification to practice a specific specialty occupation, the alien must hold the appropriate license and be fully qualified to lawfully perform the duties of the position offered.DOL and USCIS RequirementsIn addition to both the Occupation requirements and the Education requirements, the employer must also adhere to the Department of Labor (DOL) requirements to obtain a Labor Condition Application (LCA). After the DOL certifies the LCA, the employer must submit Form I-129 to the USCIS for permission to employ the foreign worker under H-1B status, so that the alien worker may be hired.To successfully complete this process, the employer must first attest that the H-1B visa worker is being paid, at minimum, what is called the “prevailing wage” for the job. The “prevailing wage” is defined by DOL rules as the average rate of wages paid to workers similarly employed in the area ofintended employment. The prevailing wage is determined through the National Prevailing Wage Center (NPWC). The following factors determine one’s prevailing wage:1.Job title;cational and work experience requirements;3.Job description;4.Job location; and5.Type of employer, (i.e. academic, government or private.)Example 1:John and Ron are both professors of biochemistry who have the same educational experience and job description. John is employed by a university in New York City, while Ron works for a college inHouston, Texas. Everything else being equal, due to the differences in location and cost of living at these locations, the prevailing wage for John is higher than the prevailing wage for Ron.Example 2:Jen and Ryan are researchers in chemistry. Both livein Seattle, Washington and their jobs require the same level of education and work experience. The University of Washington hires Jen, while a private company employs Ryan. Since they are employed in different sectors (i.e. public v. private sectors), their prevailing wages will be different and Jen’s prevailing wage is much lower than Ryan’s prevai ling wage.Example 3:Jill and Greg are researchers in chemistry.Both livein Washington D.C. and have similar education and work experience. The same private company employs both of them, where Jill is a research scientist and Greg is just a post-doctoral researcher. Since Jill has a higher job title and her job description encompasses more duties, Jill’s prevailing wage will be higher than Greg’s.Next, the employer must attest to the following six conditions:1.The employer will pay the H-1B employee the higher of:a.The actual wage rate that it pays to all other individuals with similar experience and qualifications, orb.The prevailing wage level for the occupation in the “area of intended employment”, which is definedas the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) and the narrower Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area (PSMA).2.Employment of the H-1B worker will not adversely affect the working conditions of workers similarlyemployed in the intended area of employment;3.There is no current strike/lockout involving the prospective H-1B worker’s position at his/herworkplace;4.The employer will provide notice of filing of the labor condition application to the employees’ collectivebargaining representative for the H-1B occupation or, lacking such a representative, willconspicuously post such notice at the work site onthe date the labor condition application is filed,or within 30 days before it is filed, and shall remain posted for 10 days;5.The employer will maintain for public examination:a. A copy of the Labor Condition Application filed,b.Documentation of the salary paid to the H-1B employee,c.An explanation of how the actual wage was determined, andd.Documentation of the basis used for the prevailing wage;6.The employer must agree to pay the alien the reasonable cost of transportation to return to his or herhome country if the employer terminates the alien’s employment prior to the end of the authorized employment period.U.S. Employer Sponsorship RequirementFor an alien to obtain an H-1B visa, an employer must make a job offer and be willing to sponsor the alien by filing a petition with the USCIS. Generally, individuals cannot apply for an H-1B visa to allow them to work in the US. The U.S. employer must petition for the entry of the employee.An employer seeking the services of an H-1B alien and filing the necessary papers to obtain such services must be a "U.S. employer." A U.S. employer is a person, firm, corporation, contractor or other association or organization in the United States with an IRS tax identification number known asa Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN). There must be an employer-employee relationship,as indicated by the fact that the employer may hire, fire, pay, supervise or otherwise control the work of the employee.There are two major requirements that the employer must fulfill:a.The employer must have the ability to pay the employee. For instance, John wants to hire a computerprogrammer for his start-up company. He promises to pay an alien worker $50,000 for a year of work;how ever he currently has only $800 in his company’s bank account. Under this circumstance, John fails the ability to pay test;b.The job offer to the intended H-1B beneficiary should be a bona fide offer. In other words, there mustbe a real business need for the position to be filled by the alien worker.On August 2, 2011, USCIS announced and outlined a series of policies to promote the US economy and investment by attracting foreign entrepreneurswith talent orexceptional ability who can create jobs, form start-up companies, and invest capital in areas of high unemployment. USCIS has clarifiedthat a nonimmigrant alien who is the owner of a petitioning company created in the US may establisha valid employer-employee relationship for the purposes of sponsoring an H-1B visa. Not all alien-owned companies can establish an employer-employee relationship, but it is possible to do so. There must be a degree of separation between the alien and his/her company as the employer. The alien cannot be self-employed in the traditional sense and be the beneficiary of an H-1B petition from his/her own company. There must be an independent company entity that can exerthiring/paying/supervising/firing authority outside of the alien-owner’s command in order for that same alien to be an H-1B beneficiary for his/her own company. For more information, please visit our article on “Starting a Business in Which an F-1 / H-1B Visa Holder is a Shareholder or Owner.”- See more at: /h-1b/h1b_requirements.html#sthash.DBbeMKVX.dpufH-1B RequirementsMinimum wage: /OesWizardStart.aspxRequirement 1 - You must have an employer-employee relationship with the petitioning U.S. employer.In general, a valid employer-employee relationship is determined by whether the U.S. employer may hire, pay, fire, supervise or otherwise control the work of the H-1B worker. In some cases, the sole or majority owner of the petitioning company or organization may be able to establish a valid employer-employee relationship, if the facts show that the petitioning entity has the right to control the beneficiary’s employment.Requirement 2 - Your job must qualify as a specialty occupation by meeting one of the following criteria:∙ A bachelor’s degree or higher degree or its equivalent is normally the minimum requir ement for the particular position;∙The degree requirement is common for this position in the industry, or the job is so complex or unique that it can only be performed by someone with at least a bachelor's degree in a fieldrelated to the position;∙The employer normally requires a degree or its equivalent for the position; or∙The nature of the specific duties is so specialized and complex that the knowledge required to perform the duties is usually associated with the attainment of a bachelor's or higher degree.How do I prove that my position within my business is in an occupation that normally requires a degree in a related field?USCIS often refers to the Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH) from the Department of Labor (DOL) to help determine whether certain jobs require a degree. If the OOH does not indicate thata degree in a related field is normally the minimum requirement for the position, examplesof evidence you may submit to demonstrate that the position normally requires such a degree includes:。

一个普通人如何去美国工作

一个普通人如何去美国工作

工作签证:①H1b就是H1b,也就是说,在美国的留学生找到了工作,雇主给她办理的H1b的工作签证;②L1中国的总公司在美国有分公司,从总公司派你到美国的分公司去工作,这就是办理的L1工作签证;类似于日本的内转勤签证。

像这种签证普通人办不下来。

旅游签证:旅游签证出境了转成合法签证,比如说转成留学签证。

如果不转,那就属于打黑工了!不建议打黑工。

办理美国签证大致分为三步,盘护照:护照如何办理不用老师再多说,在国内出点钱做个加急就出来了,但是你拿到护照并不代表你就一定能取得美国签证。

简单来说,白本护照没有任何含金量,必须通过我们出国之后把护照盘活了,许多人选择第一站就是泰国、新加坡、马来西亚三个国家,但其实现在对于美国签证来说,新马泰属于含金量很低的地区,建议要刷护照的伙伴们第一站首选韩国、日本作为刷护照的第一站,盘活护照,第二站澳洲、欧洲随便选地区走一趟。

如此护照正本的含金量会大幅度提升。

不能着急:所有的线路并不能在短时间内完成,要去美国要提前规划好。

例如年初去附近的短途地区韩国、日本,年末再去欧洲、澳洲,如此规划呈现在签证官面试,签证官会觉得这是一个很正常的,如半年之内,日韩欧洲都去过了,一看就是在刷护照。

高强度拒签:有粉丝说,我没钱刷护照,签证官中文都不好,好糊弄。

这就错了,美方签证官几乎都在研究中国文化,可能有的中文比你我都好,但不排除有通过几率,2017年有位山东粉丝大字不识,抱着试一试态度,过了就去美打工,不过就回家种地,毫不夸张地说1%的通过率,幸运完美降临,现在就在美国打工。

美方签证官拒签对象:30多岁单身男女、护照白本、没有固定经济工作收入的、无房无车,都很容易被拒签,因为需要资料中其中一项就是半年内收入流水!值得一提的是如果被拒签差不多5年内都会被拒签,不用白跑,因为美国的签证差不多记录会保存7-10年。

签证流程:盘活护照之后-在网上预约签证填写DS160表格(自己填可以省去手续费)50X50白底照片-收入证明-银行流水-房子车子股票基金(任何能证明你财力的资产)-去过其他国家旅游的标志性照片-全家福照片,等等这类型的资料有多少提供多少-完成以上需给美国领事馆缴纳160美元签证费(拒签了也不会退还)-预约面试1-2分钟(资料需原件本身)去美国领事馆(北京、上海。

美国H1B工作签证新政策解读
据报道,美国H1B工作签证出台新规定:新规定申请调整身份为永久居民获准的H-1B 签证持有人的配偶,将得以在美国工作。

美国持工作签证(H1B)配偶能在美合法工作后,引发热烈讨论,有H1B单身汉乐观认为自己“身价倍增”,“娶老婆有希望了”。

持H1B签证从事机械工程工作的傅先生年过30,仍是光棍一条。

他说,亚裔男在美国择偶范围本就有限,外加身份受限,找女友难上加难。

留学生时期曾与一位老乡女同学好过几年,但毕业后学电影的她找不到工作,而他自己也只是手握H1B的“泥菩萨”,自身难保,留不住女友,两人只能分道扬镳,此后一直单身到现在。

他说,解决工作问题等于解决在美安身立命的根本,若他的配偶能因他获得工作权利,像他这样的理工科男生无疑将变得“更值钱”,至少找女友的底气都会更足,暗自庆幸自己身价倍增。

长春藤名校博士毕业的杜先生虽只是H1B持有者,但年薪近20万。

太太四年前赴美,恰逢经济低迷,找不到能为她申办工作签证的雇主,一直闲在家中。

尽管杜先生高薪足以养活两口,但拥有MBA学历的太太却不甘愿在家无所事事,两人只有把生孩子的计划提前。

四年间已有两个儿子,太太每天的工作是在家带小孩。

尽管有孩子很开心,但杜先生坦言,“这是无奈选择”。

他希望新政策能早日实行,太太可以选择一份想做的工作,“赚多少钱并不重要,但她能透过工作在社会中找到自己的位置和价值”。

威斯康辛大学心理学系毕业的周同学表示,与其允许H1B的配偶工作,倒不如增加H1B 现有的85000个名额。

同样都是挤占本土人的工作机会,但起码能申请H1B的人做的工作要比H1B配偶做的工作对美国经济贡献更大更有意义。

她说,按照这项政策,“努力读大学反倒不如嫁个H1B老公”,让她心灰意冷。

而按照现有政策,H1B的配偶可申请H4签证,能在美居住但不能工作,除非配偶自行申请到H1B。
