In 2016 approximately 236,000 highly skilled foreign nationals applied for an H-1B visa – over 60,000 more applications than in 2014. However the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) can grant only a maximum of 85,000 H-1B visas per year, with 20,000 of those reserved for U.S. university Masters degree holders.
With such heavy H-1B competition, a successful application requires a strategic approach to navigating the process and procedures, an understanding of the strict deadlines and the stamina to weather the lottery although approval rates are plummeting.
H1B Visas – Application and Approval is a success playbook and a blueprint for winning at the H1B application process. While each case is unique taking into account position type, employer characteristics, employee background, nationality and specific industry – a strategic approach with knowledge of likely interpretation and action is critical.
This volume is ideal for HR directors and others who handle H1B visas or hire foreign-born employees for a company.
Included are an overview of the H-1B Visa, a step by step process for creating a bulletproof employment letter, “prevailing wage” information, H-1B petitions, caps and alternatives, extensions and all else involved in a successful application strategy and process.
An informative index includes Frequently Asked Questions about H-1B Visas, 10 Common Mistakes to Avoid when Filing for an H-1B Visa, 5 Winning H-1B Secrets for Startups and Small Companies, 5 Tips for a Bulletproof Employment Letter, Top 5 Reasons USCIS Adjudicators Reject H-1B Visa Petitions, Important 2017 Changes and Clarifications to U.S. Immigration Rules, Choosing an Attorney to Assist with and Expedite your Application and more.
