Non-Immigrant Visa Lawyer in California – U.S. Visas
There are a number of non-immigrant employment visas available for those who wish to work in the US on a temporary basis. Some of the more common non-immigrant employment visas we regularly handle for clients include B, H, L, O, and P visas.
H1-B Visa – Type of Visa for temporary Specialty Occupational employment in the USA. Specialty Occupation must be for highly specialized knowledge and receiving a bachelor’s or higher degree in the specific specialty (or its equivalent). The applicant must be coming to the United States temporarily, but need not keep a foreign residence. The petitioner must be a US employer filling a permanent job position on a temporary basis. A maximum of 65,000 H-1B visas are granted each year, plus 20,000 visas granted to people who have earned master’s or higher degree from a US institution of higher education. The initial entry period for H1-B is 3 years, with extensions possible.
L Visas – Intracompany Transfers. To qualify for an L visa, an applicant must have been continuously employed abroad for 1 of the past 3 years by a parent, branch, affiliate, or subsidiary of a U.S. company preceding the application for admission. Applicant must be seeking to enter the US in order to continue working for the same employer, affiliate, or subsidiary. The L visa is a dual intent visa that allows visa holders to seek permanent residence while maintaining their L status.
O Visas – Individuals of Significant Ability. O Visas are issued to individuals who have significant ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics and who have demonstrated extraordinary achievement in such a field. Applicant must declare his/her intent to remain only temporarily in the USA. Extraordinary achievement indicates a level of expertise which indicates that the person is at the forefront of his/her field, ie have a high salary, awards, published material, membership in elite organizations, and a record of employment in a critical position at a recognized company.
P Visas – Sports Teams and Entertainment Groups. P visas are available to minor league professionals, entertainers, and internationally recognized entertainment groups. P visas are temporary, and applicants are entering the USA to participate in a competition, event, or performance. Teams must be internationally recognized, and events must have a distinguished reputation. Minor and amateur athletes must fulfill additional requirements. Entertainment groups must be internationally recognized with 75% of members having continuous and considerable relationship to the group for one year.

What Our Client Say About Us
Going through the immigration process can be very stressful and uneasy. I am glad that I chose to work with Anna and her team for my case. They handled my case promptly and professionally. Whenever I had questions or concerns, I could get responses from them quickly. I will trust them for my future immigration cases and recommend her business to my friends.
North County Immigration has amazing customer service and super knowledgeable staff! I worked with a number of other immigration lawyers in the past, but Anna Hysell is by far superior. I was referred to Anna through another former client of hers that spoke volumes about her. I was able to get an appointment within a day. She is very detailed and was able to give me several solutions. The best part is her fees are very reasonable, even lower than some of her competitors. So you are getting the best help at an affordable price. Definitely call you because you won’t regret it!
