This is a temporary visitor for business visa. KTC attorneys have extensive experience in helping multiple clients (including but not limited to executives and managers of foreign corporations and individual investors secure temporary B-1 visas) enter the US for temporary business related activities.

Essentially the same as H-1B, these visas are reserved for specialized knowledge employees who are Australian citizens.

H-1B Visa Lawyers
The H-1B visa has become a cornerstone for U.S. employers to onboard specialized talent from across the globe. Introduced in 1990, this visa program enables U.S. companies to bridge talent gaps by hiring foreign nationals with unique expertise. Whether it’s an engineer, software developer, or any other specialized professional, the H-1B visa offers a pathway to work in the U.S. for up to six years.
The H-1B visa is applicable to positions requiring a bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in specialized fields. The application process mandates proof of the candidate’s qualifications and the job’s unique requirements. The U.S. Department of Labor guidelines are focused on ensuring that hiring H-1B workers neither adversely impacts U.S. workers nor subjects foreign nationals to exploitation.
H-1B1 is similar to the above but is only available to citizens of Singapore and Chile.
Securing an H-1B visa involves multiple steps, including a requirement that a U.S. employer sponsor the visa. Thereafter, documentation must be gathered, and the employer must file an H-1B petition with critical information, including information about prevailing wages and salaries and marketplace conditions for the job. The entire process can be intricate, requiring the need for an experienced H-1B lawyer.
We help businesses understand these requirements so that the appropriate documentation can be filed at the outset based upon the associated requirements. Our goal is to streamline this process to the extent possible to minimize potential delays, and to obtain the desired business outcomes.
