Lawline Webcast - Navigating Nonimmigrant Visas: A Comprehensive Overview of Temporary Work Authorization in the United States
March 18, 2024 | 10:00 AM — 11:00 AM EST
Fragomen Partner Amy Fallon is presenting during the Lawline hosted webcast, "Navigating Nonimmigrant Visas: A Comprehensive Overview of Temporary Work Authorization in the United States" on Monday, March 18 at 10:00 AM EDT.
Amy will delve deep into the nuances of H, L, E, TN, and O nonimmigrant visas, which are vital for individuals seeking temporary work authorization in the United States. Amidst evolving immigration laws and workplace models, understanding the specific requirements and processes of each visa category becomes crucial. Participants will gain insights into the eligibility criteria, application process, and legal implications associated with each visa type, to efficiently navigate the landscape of U.S. immigration for temporary workers. Building upon this foundation, the course will further delve into the legal and procedural nuances of these visas by providing a comparative analysis of the visas, helping participants discern the most appropriate pathway for different employment scenarios and personal circumstances.
While nonimmigrant visas serve as a gateway for temporary work authorization, this course will also highlight potential pathways from nonimmigrant (temporary) to immigrant (permanent) status, understanding the limitations, strategic considerations, and steps involved in such transitions to ensure the petitioner (employer) and beneficiary (employee) comply with the relevant laws and regulations.
