H2B Visas
The H2B Visa is a work visa for seasonal jobs. Among other requirements, the H-2B employer needs to prove that its labor requirements are seasonal or temporary in nature and is required less than 12 months per year.
The H-2B worker has the ability to work in a number of industries as long as is not related to agriculture.
The number of H-2B Visas the USCIS issues is limited to 66,000 per year and is available only to countries previously designated as H-2B eligible. This type of Visa also applies to the entertainment and sports industry.
Green Cards
Employment Based Green Cards are issued to immigrants who aspire to live and work in US territory permanently. They can be available to employers who sponsor a foreign worker for a job that requires less than 2 years of training.
As the demand for this type of Visa is exceedingly high and the number of available visas is limited to 40,000 per year, it is crucial to hire an experienced immigration attorney.
The Wyngaard immigration attorneys have been assisting many individuals and companies sponsoring workers get their EB-3 Visas since 2005.

TN Visa
According to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, the TN visa program was born out of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and allowed qualified Canadian and Mexican citizens to enter the U.S. for professional business purposes. However, only specific types of professionals can obtain a TN visa. These include accountants, engineers, lawyers, pharmacists, scientists, and teachers.
To be eligible for a TN visa, the individual must be a citizen of Mexico or Canada, have a full or part-time job with a U.S. employer, and be qualified to practice in their profession. TN visas are good for up to three years and can be extended. Spouses and children of the visa-holder may also enter the U.S. and may study here but cannot obtain employment.
