    Frequently Asked Questions About Scottsdale Business Immigration

    Our business immigration lawyers help in several different areas. We work alongside US businesses that are looking to legally hire foreign workers, we help employers transfer international staff, and we help those that are not US citizens create a business within the US and navigate the complex legal immigration system to do so successfully. Whether you’re looking at securing a non-immigrant visa, pursuing a green card for a current employee, considering a merger or acquisition of a business that impacts the visa statuses of current employees, and more, we have you covered.

    There are several options for foreign individuals who are considering a startup or purchasing a current business within the United States. If you live within one of the qualifying treaty countries, the best option as an entrepreneur is likely the E-2 Investor option. This choice allows you to start a business and renew the visa indefinitely. Another option for current business owners that want to expand to the United States might be an L-1A Visa which provides a direct path to a Green Card and does not require a minimum investment. There are many more paths that work with different situations so be sure to talk with our business immigration lawyers to find out how you can move forward!

    Not necessarily. If you are in Scottsdale on a different visa such as an F-1 student visa or an H-1B work visa, you could apply for an E-2 visa and start a business. However, E-2 visas are only allowed for those that are moving to the United States to start a business, not for current business owners. If you live in Scottsdale and are a current business owner looking to move forward in your immigration status, reach out to our lawyers who will help you navigate the system so you can experience the best possible situation.

    Yes! Let’s say that your foreign company is expanding to the United States in Arizona. You can apply for an L-1A visa which allows one of your executives to travel to the United States for 1 year to establish the new branch, subsidiary, or affiliate. If you are transferring an individual to an already existing subsidiary, they can be transferred right away and the visa lasts for up to 3 years. The stipulations are that the executive must have been employed for at least 1 continuous year within the last 3 years and the foreign company and the US business must share a qualifying relationship.

    Yes! However, you must prove that you tried to find a worker within the United States and you were unable to do so. In this situation, you can sponsor a foreign worker using a couple different visa options. The best visa will depend on what you are trying to accomplish and how long the individual hopes to remain within the United States. Talk to our lawyers about finding a foreign worker and the best path forward for the best chances of success.

    The required evidence for a business immigration case includes proving that the business is real, proving the funds are lawful, and proving the application is qualified. To prove business operations, you can provide articles of organization, the local business license, an employer identification number, and more. For lawful funds, you can use personal tax returns, wire transfers, invoices for funds “at risk”, and more. All of this information will be provided to you by our business immigration lawyer who will walk you through what you need and how to go about the entire process.

    Business visas can take a wide range of time to process depending on what visa you are trying to get and whether or not expedited processing is requested. While you can check estimated timelines directly on the USCIS processing times tool, some cases are completed in as few as 15 days, while others may take several years! We will help you create a path forward and will give you a realistic idea of how long it may take to fulfill your goals. We also have ways to expedite processing, which we will talk over with you so you can make informed decisions.

    Yes! Premium processing can significantly speed up the business visa process. It can reduce processing from months to just 15 days. However, not every visa qualifies for this type of processing and there is a fee associated with it. For L-1A, L-1B, H-1B, EB-2, EB-3, O-1, and TN visas, it can reduce the wait time to 15 days! For EB-1A, EB-1C, EB-2 NIW, the time can be reduced to 45 days. Talk to our lawyers about the options available in your specific case to get a faster response!

    Many individuals become worried when they receive a Request for Evidence. This is not a denial. Instead, your application is put on hold until you provide the evidence and then it can move forward towards the final decision. There are strict deadlines when it comes to RFEs so be sure you meet them and provide all the evidence that is requested. You will only have one chance to respond. Our lawyers can help you through this process to ensure the best chances of success.

    When it comes to business operations, the best path forward is to start with a temporary visa and then to transition to a green card once you are working within the United States. This pathway often involves an adjustment of status, a process that takes careful planning. Be sure our lawyers walk you through the steps so you are successful.

    However, monitoring priority dates and managing this process takes careful planning under the U.S. Department of State Visa Bulletin guidelines. Be sure our lawyers walk you through the steps so you are successful.
