H-1B Visa Consultants for Specialty Occupation Professionals
Consultant-led guidance for skilled professionals and employers navigating the H-1B visa. We help assess eligibility, align job roles with USCIS specialty occupation standards, and manage the H-1B process strategically from registration to approval.
Visa Context
What Is the H-1B Visa?
The H-1B visa is a U.S. work visa designed for professionals employed in specialty occupations that require specialized knowledge and at least a bachelor’s degree or equivalent. It allows U.S. employers to hire foreign professionals for roles that demand technical, analytical, or domain-specific expertise.
Specialty Occupation Standard
Roles must require specialized knowledge and a relevant degree.
Employer Sponsorship
A U.S. employer must sponsor and file the petition.
Annual Cap & Lottery
Subject to a yearly quota with an electronic registration process.
Validity & Extensions
Initially granted for up to three years, extendable to six years (with exceptions).
Eligibility Reality

H-1B eligibility depends on both the beneficiary and the sponsoring employer. USCIS evaluates the role, qualifications, and employment structure together.

We review and reposition your role, qualifications, and documentation multiple times to align with evolving USCIS expectations and address potential weaknesses early.
Long-Term Case Ownership
Our consultants remain accountable throughout your H-1B journey from strategy and filing to RFEs, audits, and next-step planning rather than treating it as a one-time submission.
Strategy-First, Consultant-Led Execution
We lead with eligibility analysis, role positioning, and evidence strategy before filing so your H-1B petition is built for scrutiny, not just submission.
