Step-by-step guidance through the work visa and green card
processes.
Colleges and universities actively recruit international
students. These students are often interested in extending their stays in
the U.S. beyond their degree programs and will logically turn to their
school administrators for advice and guidance regarding what they'll have
to do in order to be able to remain in the U.S after their Optional
Practical Training (OPT) is over.
Gain a
competitive advantage in attracting and retaining the most sought-after
students.
Having answers to questions related to international student
visas and transitions to work visas and green cards can often give a school
a competitive advantage in attracting and retaining the most sought-after
students. Learn the issues affecting prospective and current international
students. This will include a step-by-step overview of the basic
requirements of the H-1B visa process and the current situation with
respect to H-1B visa availability... a discussion of work visa alternatives
to the H-1B visa... an overview of the employment-based permanent residency
process and how long in advance of the end of OPT a student should seek
visa sponsorship... and much more.
Please join Gali Schaham Gordon, attorney at law, as she
guides you step-by-step through the work visa and green card processes and
offers answers to the questions your international students are likely to
be asking.
