Employers:
Many employers have contacted us saying they would like to hire one or foreign nationals for a professional position, but have no idea where to begin.
Our service is geared toward both small to mid sized businesses where a President or Vice President does all of the hiring, to larger companies where the HR department simply has not had experience in filing H-1B petitions.
In most cases, we can quickly assess in a telephone conversation what the chance of success will be in your situation.
Students:
We receive hundreds of calls and emails each month from students on F-1 and OPT (Optional Practical Training) and CPT (Curricular Practical Training) who seek our assistance in switching to the H-1B visa.
H1B Visa Holders:
Our service includes processing H-1B visa transfer and H-1B visa renewal/extension cases.
We understand the importance of processing these petitions in a very timely manner, as the H-1B Visa holder may start work for the new company as soon as the transfer petition is received by USCIS.
In any case, we can help. We make the process very easy for students, employers and H-1B holders.
Students appreciate us because our fees are among the lowest in the industry.
Employers appreciate our service because we do all the work!
H-1B holders appreciate our service because we process the transfer paperwork very quickly and efficiently.
