H1B visa

The H-1B visa is a U.S. work permit that allows companies to hire foreign professionals in specialized fields, such as technology, engineering, finance, and healthcare. It requires the applicant to have a relevant degree and the employer to demonstrate a need for their skills. The visa is typically granted for up to three years, with potential extensions, and often serves as a pathway to permanent residency. It helps U.S. employers access global talent while facilitating skilled foreign workers’ employment and residence in the United States.
