Do not get caught up in the complex US work permit application process. Fady Eskandar is an immigration attorney in Anaheim, California who can help you obtain permission to work. You can apply for the EB1 visa or h1b visa process , seek permanent residency, or apply for another type of US business visa . There are numerous different employment-based visas that might be available to you. Some visas, such as the EB1 visa, EB2 visa, EB3 visa, EB4 visa , and EB5 visa may make you eligible for legal permanent residency (a US Green Card ). Others, like the H1B visa , give you the temporary right to work in the US but do not provide a US Green Card . Not all work visas are appropriate for every worker. You might find that your profession makes you eligible for a specific visa, especially if you have ever worked in a specialized field. Most often, US immigration puts a higher priority on those who work in highly specialized fields or who have extraordinary ability in their field of work. This might work to your advantage if you fall into any of the right categories of work! But, even without either of those two situations, you can still apply for the US working visa if you meet the requirements for any of the specific visas, or if you need to temporarily travel to the US for your business.
