Us Work Visa Options
Summary
Losing an H-1B visa due to job loss can be challenging. To return to the USA, you can find a new H-1B sponsor, apply for a different visa type, or consult an immigration attorney for personalized guidance. An H-1B transfer involves a new employer filing a petition, allowing you to work without being subject to the annual cap. Companies can sponsor an H-1B for someone not living in the U.S., involving job offer, petition filing, and consular processing. USCIS processes the petition, with timelines varying from 3 to 6 months, or 15 days with premium processing.Full Conversation
