I am a foreign business owner with offices in the United States. What kind of visas do I need for my employees to come to the United States to work?
Both immigrant (permanent) and non-immigrant (temporary) visas are available for foreign employees. The type of visa(s) you need for your employees depends widely on the industry in which your business is located and the type of work these employees will be doing. One of the important factors is the amount of education and/or training these employees have or will be obtaining within the United States. Goldstein & Associates can examine your business situation and advise you as to the types of visas you must acquire. For preliminary information about the different types of visas, please see our pages discussing immigrant and non-immigrant visas.
