EB1 Visa
The EB1 visa caters to individuals with extraordinary ability in sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics. Our team prepares compelling petitions highlighting achievements through awards, publications, and expert testimonials. We guide clients through evidence compilation, petition filing, and agency communication to secure approval for permanent residency.
H1B Visa
H1B visas require employers to sponsor foreign workers in specialized fields requiring a bachelor's degree or higher. We assist employers with labor condition applications, petition preparation, and compliance audits. Our services ensure adherence to wage requirements and documentation standards for successful cap-subject and cap-exempt filings.
EB5 Visa
The EB5 program grants residency to investors creating U.S. jobs through capital investment. We evaluate business plans, structure investments meeting $800k+ regional center or $1.05M+ direct job creation requirements, and prepare detailed petitions demonstrating fund sources and job impact for permanent residency approval.
Family Green Cards
Family-based petitions reunite U.S. citizens and permanent residents with relatives. We handle immediate relative visas (spouses, parents, children) and preference categories (siblings, married children), managing Form I-130 filings, adjustment of status, and consular processing to achieve lawful permanent residence.
Investment Immigration
E1 treaty trader and E2 investor visas require substantial capital investment or trade volume. We assess eligibility, structure business plans meeting 50%+ foreign ownership requirements, and prepare documentation proving treaty country nationality and investment sustainability for non-immigrant visa approval and renewal.
