How does a department apply for H-1B visa status for a new employee?
A. First, the department must initiate the application by contacting one of the H-1B advisors, either Teresa Keller at teresa.keller@uky.edu or Maria Tovar at maria.tovar@uky.edu. The advisor will send an assessment form to be completed by the department and the candidate seeking the H-1B status. Further paperwork needed for the case will be explained at that time.
