H-1B Visas
The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa category that allows US employers to hire foreign professionals in specialty occupations requiring specialized knowledge, such as IT, engineering, finance, or healthcare. Key features of the H-1B visa include dual intent, allowing visa holders to seek permanent residency, and a maximum six-year duration with extensions possible in certain cases.

Employment-Based Immigration - PERM
PERM labor certification allows employers to hire foreign workers for permanent positions in the United States when no qualified, willing, and able US workers are available. It is commonly used for skilled professionals, including IT specialists, data and software professionals, architects, engineers, healthcare workers, and financial experts. Our law firm assists employers throughout the PERM process by drafting job descriptions, determining prevailing wages, conducting recruitment efforts per Department of Labor (DOL) guidelines, and filing the ETA Form 9089. We ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, facilitating a smooth transition for foreign workers to secure permanent residency through employment-based visa categories like EB-2 and EB-3.

PERM Process in a Competitive Labor Market: Advantages for Employers
The PERM (Program Electronic Review Management) process is a key step for employers seeking to sponsor foreign nationals for permanent employment-based residency (Green Card) in the United States. In a tight labor market, where the demand for skilled workers exceeds supply, the PERM process offers significant advantages to employers:
Access to Global Talent: By utilizing the PERM process, employers can tap into a wider pool of highly skilled and qualified foreign professionals, addressing talent shortages and enhancing the company's competitiveness.
Retention of Valued Employees: Sponsoring foreign employees for permanent residency helps retain valuable talent, reducing turnover and minimizing the costs associated with recruitment and training.
Enhanced Employer Brand: Demonstrating a commitment to sponsor foreign employees can improve an employer's reputation, making it more attractive to both domestic and international job seekers.
Diverse Workforce: A diverse workforce fosters creativity, innovation, and problem-solving, strengthening the company's performance and growth potential.
