US-B1 visa

The US B-1 visa is a quicker alternative for overseas immigrants to arrive at the US when compared with the L-1 and H-1B visas. It grants the permit for arrival to the US for multiple times for one year for a work assignment of short term. The work usually pertains to contract between the overseas business and the US Company.

In specific circumstances, the overseas Graduate levels workers can ideally opt for US B-1 visa in place of H-1B visa. It is ideal for firms that intend to send workers quickly to the US within few weeks. This visa is especially suitable for workers at the Graduate level, as quoted by the Workpermit.  It is processed faster when compared to other visas of long-term duration such as the L-1 and H-1B visas.

The requirements of the US B-1 visa in place of H-1B visa are as below:

  • The work that will be undertaken in the US must be on par with the H-1B level. The skilled worker must be working in a specialized occupation in a work level at the Graduate degree. It usually requires minimum Bachelor’s degree or equal.
  • The worker must be a permanent worker of the overseas non-US business. The worker must also continue to draw the salary from the firm outside the US while residing in the US via the US B-1 visa.
  • The payroll of the overseas business must continue to list the worker. The employee must also not get any other payment apart from US source allowance for expense.
  • The worker at the Graduate level must possess at least a Bachelor’s level degree. The qualification must also be relevant to the services that are offered.
