Business Immigration in the US

It is well known that the US attracts thousands of foreigners annually, from highly skilled workers and international students, to immigrants in need international protection, who apply to humanitarian programs such as refugee or political asylum.

In fact, the immigration system is quite extensive and can even be complex if one does not understand processes available for each particular case and if legal guidelines are not properly followed. Choosing the right immigration process is one of the priorities so that you can come to the US or successfully complete your immigration journey within the country.

Speaking specifically about business immigration, both local companies and foreign workers have several options to either hire personnel from abroad or have the opportunity to gain work experience in the US.

It is important to mention that the global Coronavirus pandemic allowed the Donald Trump administration to substantially restrict business immigration and narrow alternatives available to foreign workers, including those highly qualified in areas such as technology and science, which are essential sectors for the US international competitiveness, especially in times of crisis.

However, after a considerable period of time and taking into account that the Democratic candidate Joe Biden is currently leading the country’s administration, business immigration is gradually returning to normal and existing processes are resuming on a global scale, although there are still certain limitations and restrictions in place, depending on the situation of each country regarding the massive outbreak of COVID-19.

2020 was quite a peculiar and difficult year for most countries around the world, if not all. One of the sectors most affected by the health emergency was immigration. Naturally, when COVID-19 spread uncontrollably to almost every corner of our planet, most governments decided to close borders for a considerable period of time to prevent the import and export of the virus, which was an almost impossible task because it is highly contagious through human contact.

In the case of the US, then-President Donald Trump stated that immigration should be reduced amid the health crisis to protect American workers and safeguard essential resources. Therefore, his administration implemented emergency measures such as suspending the issuance of H-1B visas for highly qualified foreign workers and ordering local companies to hire only American personnel during the sanitary emergency.

Now, almost a year later, alternatives and opportunities are opening again for American or US-based companies to hire foreign workers and attract talent and innovation from abroad.
