Work Visa (H-1B & L-1 Visa) Overview
The USA Work Visa allows foreign professionals to work in the United States under various employment-based visa categories. The most common work visa is the H-1B Visa, issued to skilled professionals in specialized fields such as IT, engineering, and healthcare. Another important category is the L-1 Visa, designed for intra-company transfers, allowing employees of multinational companies to work in a U.S. branch. These visas are employer-sponsored, meaning applicants must have a valid job offer from a U.S. company. At JPlinks Consultancy, we guide applicants through the complex process, ensuring all requirements are met for a smooth visa application.
Permitted Activities Under the Work Visa
H-1B and L-1 visa holders are permitted to work only for the sponsoring employer in the role specified in their visa petition. H-1B holders can work for up to six years with extensions, while L-1 visa holders can stay for up to seven years depending on the category. These visas also allow dependents (spouse and children under 21) to accompany the applicant under H-4 or L-2 dependent visas. However, restrictions apply regarding changing employers or switching visa categories, which require USCIS approval. JPlinks Consultancy ensures applicants understand their employment rights, restrictions, and compliance with U.S. visa regulations.
Application Process and Required Documents:
The USA work visa application begins with the employer filing a petition (Form I-129) with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Once approved, the applicant must complete the DS-160 online visa form, pay the visa fee, and schedule an interview at a U.S. Embassy. Required documents include a valid passport, job offer letter, approved petition (I-797), proof of qualifications (degrees, certifications), and financial records. In some cases, applicants may also need to show previous work experience letters and employer sponsorship details. JPlinks Consultancy provides complete application assistance, ensuring all documents are correctly prepared and submitted.
Processing Time and Duration of Stay:
The processing time for a USA work visa varies. H-1B visas are subject to an annual lottery system, and processing can take several months, while L-1 visas may take weeks to months depending on embassy workload. Premium processing is available for faster results. H-1B visas are initially granted for three years, with extensions up to six years, whereas L-1 visas allow a stay of one to seven years, depending on the visa subcategory. JPlinks Consultancy helps applicants track their visa status and apply for extensions when needed.
Visa Center
A Visa Center facilitates the visa application process by handling document verification, biometric data collection, fee submission, and interview scheduling. It acts as a bridge between applicants and embassies, ensuring accurate submissions. Additionally, it provides passport collection, tracking services, and premium assistance, making the visa process smooth and efficient
