U.S. Employers Seeking to Hire Foreign Nationals

Our law firm regularly assists employers with their business immigration goals by counseling them on the most efficient way to employ foreign nationals.

We work with employers seeking to sponsor employees for permanent residency.   We advise employers on which employment-based preference categories their employees qualify for and can determine whether labor certification is a necessary step or can be avoided.  If labor certification is necessary, we counsel employers on how to comply with the government's recruiting requirements and then file the labor certification application with the U.S. Department of Labor.  Once the labor certification application is approved, we prepare and file the I-140 Employment-Based Petition, as well as the employee's I-485 Adjustment of Status application, with the Bureau of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

We also regularly help employers file petitions and applications for temporary work visas.

If your company is seeking to temporarily or permanently employ a foreign national, please call us at 512-329-2740.
