United States immigration law consists of complex and constantly changing federal rules, procedures, and legal precedent. This section of our website provides a brief summary of certain areas in U.S. immigration law, including immigrant and non-immigrant visas, investment opportunities to become a permanent resident (Green Card), compliance with federal law, and others services we offer.

 

We provide legal services to all immigrant and non-immigrant visas including the following.

Foreign nationals who are permitted to reside in the U.S. indefinitely are referred to as immigrants or lawful permanent residents (“LPRs”). The document evidencing that one is an LPR is often referred to as a green card. LPRs are permitted to live and work in the U.S. and may travel in and out of the country relatively easily. An LPR is not a U.S. citizen but may be eligible to apply for citizenship after maintaining residency for a certain period of time.

Employment Options

If you wish to obtain a green card through employment, in most cases you will need an employer to sponsor you. Once you have obtained a sponsoring employer, you will need to go through an application process. Generally, there are three major steps in becoming a lawful permanent resident in the United States: labor certification (labor certification does not apply to all cases), the petition, and adjustment of status or consular processing.

  • EB-1 (Extraordinary Ability)
  • EB-2 (National Interest Waiver)
  • EB-3 (Skilled and Unskilled Jobs currently available)
  • EB-4 (Special Immigrants)

The EB-1 Extraordinary Ability category is for foreign nationals of extraordinary ability in the science, arts, education, business, or athletics.

The qualified individual must demonstrate extraordinary ability through sustained national or international acclaim.

The requirement for this category can be met with a one-time achievement in the major award (i.e. Pulitzer, Oscar, and Olympic Medal) or with receipt of lesser nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards and evidence of other recognizable achievements.

Advantages:

  • No labor certification is required
  • No job offer is needed; thus can self-petition
  • Premium Processing is available

The NIW sub-category involves members of the professions who hold advanced degrees or persons of exceptional ability.

Although EB-2 petitions generally require a sponsoring employer and an approved individual labor certification, those who qualify under the NIW sub-category may self-petition without the need of an employer.

The need for labour certification is waived to qualified individuals because it is in the interest of the United States. In order to qualify, you must satisfy the following requirements:

Requirements:

  • Evidence of the benefits that the proposed employment will be national in scope.
  • Evidence of employment in an area of substantial intrinsic merit.
  • Evidence demonstrating that waiving the labor certification would benefit the national interests of the United States.

The name EB-3 stands for “Employment-Based Immigration: Third Preference”. This program is meant for foreign workers that want to be permanent residents in the USA. To be eligible, the candidate must apply under one of the following subcategories: “skilled worker”, “professional”, or “unskilled worker”.

Immigrating to the USA was never that easy! In addition, the program has no age, language proof, education, or net worth prerequisites. Also, spouses and unmarried children under the age of 21 can be included in the EB-3 application and become permanent residents of the USA too.

Since the U.S government demands a labor certification and a permanent full-time job offer for all EB-3 applicants, one of those jobs can be the key to access permanent residency in the USA. HSM can provide a ‘turnkey solution to your immigration needs including selecting a safe and secure employer for you.

Advantages:

  • Fast Processing Period
  • For Unskilled Workers Program – NO educations and skills needed

Don’t miss the opportunity to apply for the U.S. EB-3 program, be a Permanent Resident in the US and live your American Dream. You can count on HSM to help you during all the application processes.

The applicant must invest in a new commercial enterprise and fulfill job creation as well as capital investment requirements. The minimum qualifying investment in the US is $1.8 million. However, Targeted High Employment Areas (High Unemployment or Rural Area) require a minimum investment amount of only $900,000.

The U.S. provides temporary visas to persons who, for a variety of reasons, do not intend to make the U.S. their permanent home. Such persons include students, trainees, persons who are on a temporary assignment for an employer in the U.S., professionals, labor workers, entrepreneurs, investors, and other persons who wish to work or remain in the U.S. for a limited period of time. Foreign nationals who are residing in the U.S. for a temporary period of time are referred to as non-immigrants.

Unlike immigrant visas, most non-immigrant visas are not limited to a numerical restriction – that is, with most non-immigrant visas there is no cap on the number of visas that will be awarded each year.  Also, certain non-immigrant visas allow foreign nationals to work in the U.S. while their green card application is pending.
