Work Visas
The US Government offers the H1B visa to enable highly skilled International Workers and International Students, from all over the World, or already in the USA, the opportunity to legally live and work in America.
The Process to obtain an H1B visa:
- To obtain an H1B visa, an applicant must, first, find a job with an H1B visa employer company in the USA; commonly known as your 'H1B sponsor'. Your H1B sponsor then applies for / files your H1B visa application. Individuals can NOT sponsor or apply for their own H1B visa - ONLY your new employer (sponsor) can.
- An H1B visa is typically valid for up to six (6) years and entitles your spouse (husband/wife) and children to accompany you and 'live' in America.
- One of the main advantages of the H1B visa (US work permit) is that it is a 'dual intent' visa which means that you can apply for a Green Card (Legal Permanent Residency).
What is an H1B Visa?
The H1B visa program is the primary method for employers to recruit & hire International professionals and International students to work in the USA. The H1B visa enables US employers to hire foreign professionals for a specified period of time. The H1B program allows workers in specialty occupations to work in the US for up to a total of six (6) years.
One of the things that makes the H1B so desirable is that, unlike many other nonimmigrant visa categories, it is a "dual intent" visa. This means that a visa will not be denied simply because a person has intentions to become a permanent resident. The assumption is that if for some reason the permanent residency petition is denied, the person would still have the intention to return home.
Aside from documenting that the position offered is in a specialty occupation and that the employee has the appropriate credentials for the job, the employer needs to verify that the H1B visa worker is being paid the prevailing wage for the work being performed and that employment of a foreign worker is not harming conditions for US workers.

Tips and Advice to Find Government Debt Relief and Grants. Does government debt relief exist, and if so, what exactly are your options? There are some misconceptions about what the government can actually do to provide debt relief. In short, the federal government does have assistance programs and grants, but there is no such thing as a straight-forward debt relief program issued by the government where your debts disappear magically.
Minority Business Enterprise Center The MBEC grant is funding that helps to subsidize non-profit organizations with minority leadership. This grant, while again not direct debt relief, will support struggling businesses and sole proprietorships. An individual who receives part or all of this grant can use the money to reduce business loans and lines of credit. Such funding frees up businesses to reinvest in research and development.
