USA Work Permit

USA Work Permit

One of the most common routes to employment in the US is the H1B visa. An employer must submit an application for this visa on the worker’s behalf. Since the visa is only given to specialists, most candidates have a Bachelor’s degree or higher and come from industries like IT, finance, architecture, medical, or science, among others. 

Lets Work Abroad assists companies in submitting H1B petitions on behalf of their employees. We also assist workers from all over the world in landing jobs with organisations that will likely sponsor them for an H1B visa.

US H1B VISA DETAILS:

The H1B Visa is one of the most competitive visas to apply for. Due to there being an annual visa cap, there is a huge demand from US employers applying for this visa. Additionally, since it is a route to a Green Card, it is one of the best visas to apply to work in the US.
