How to get a US working visa / green card
Ways to get a valid US Working Visa or Green Card
If you are considering working in the United States and you are not a U.S. citizen then you will need to understand and follow the VISA requirements set out by the USCIS. To work in the United States as a temporary employee of a U.S. company you must have filed and have been approved for a Temporary Employment Visa, which is valid for the purposes of conducting business in the United States during your visit to this country.
Qualifying for an American Work Visa
In order to qualify for this type of temporary permission to enter the United States you must be able to prove that you have a legitimate reason for visiting the United States. You may be required to provide a copy of your work contact, which specifies the duration of your employment, where you will live while in the United States, and how much money you will be making. The second thing that you will need to prove is that you are only intending to stay in the United States for a limited amount of time. Again if your work contract specifies dates that you will be employed this will help prove that you are not intending to immigrate to the U.S., but are merely planning a temporary stay. Finally you will be required to prove to the port authority that you have binding ties in another country that will ensure your return to that country after your business has concluded in the U.S. To prove this you can show that you have a permanent resident that you maintain in your home country, that you have a family in your home country, or that you have a permanent job established in your home country that you must return to. Documentation of all of these things will be needed in order to obtain a temporary work visa to work in the United States.
