Conditions and processes of EB 1-C immigration in the United States

The first part is the conditions and process of American EB 1-C immigration.

I. Application conditions of EB 1C in the United States

The applicant must have worked for an overseas parent company outside the United States for more than one year in the past three years, and need to seek to continue working for the American branch or subsidiary (or other eligible entities) of the overseas company.

3. The applicant wants to immigrate to the United States for the purpose of operating and managing the company in the United States. American employers, that is, branches and subsidiaries of overseas companies (or other eligible entities) apply to the Immigration Bureau, and American companies must actually operate for more than one year.

Overseas companies and American companies need to operate normally and hire reasonable employees.

In addition, people who have served as managers or supervisors may not meet the requirements.

Chapter III Changes of American Immigration Policy

1, H 1B Work visa and spouse work permit

The application process of H 1B work visa for foreign employees is complex and full of uncertainty. Sisner said that he understands the difficulties of American employers. However, the application standard and quota of H 1B are determined by the act of the National Assembly, and the Immigration Bureau is only a specific administrative agency, and it is not qualified to amend the articles of association.

Cases of abusing H 1B application are common. Sisner said that the Immigration Bureau has sent more staff to strengthen the examination of the eligibility for immigrant visas and sent people to the field to verify the reliability of the application materials.

2. Nationality quota and merit-based green card

According to the data of the Immigration Bureau, there are currently 306,600 Indian professional immigrants waiting for green cards, and China citizens rank second, with about 67,000 people. There are also hundreds to thousands of people in the top ten countries. As the number of applicants from the same country cannot exceed 7% of the total number of applicants, the waiting time for Indian and China nationality applicants is particularly long.

Professional immigrants need to rely on the cooperation of their employers to apply for green cards. Too long waiting time makes applicants very passive, and they often have to endure low wages and harsh treatment from their employers.

In response to the call to cancel the nationality quota, Sisna responded that this may indeed alleviate the waiting time of Indian citizens, but it also brings another problem. According to the chronological order of submission, most of the winners of professional green cards in the next few years will be Indians, which will have an impact on the diversity of immigrant sources.

3. Expand the scope of the interview.

The US Immigration Service requires professional immigrants and asylum seekers who apply for green cards to conduct interviews. Although the workload is greatly increased, the Immigration Bureau will classify the application cases. Just like visa interviews in the United States, immigration officers will ask different questions according to different green card applicants.
