How does Employment Based Immigration work?
Employment based immigration is also a complicated area of the law. There are several classes of visas available to permit an alien to come to the United States to work on either a temporary or permanent basis. If you are a US company or individual interested in sponsoring an alien to come to the United States for work purposes, you will usually have to obtain certification by the Department of Labor that such a position could not be filled by a US resident. With unemployment and the economy in the state that it is, you should consult with an attorney to help you obtain this certification and make the process efficient.
