Visas & Compliance

Immigration is complex.
That's why we
handle it for you.

You don't need to learn visa categories or file petitions. We determine the right pathway based on the candidate's nationality and the role, then manage the process end-to-end with licensed immigration counsel. Here's what's working behind the scenes:

TN Visa

No Cap. No Lottery. No Waiting.

For Mexican and Canadian Nationals — Engineers, Architects, Scientists

No annual cap and no lottery — you don't lose a qualified candidate to chance
Port-of-entry adjudication available — approval often measured in days, not months
Renewable indefinitely for qualifying professional roles
No PERM labor certification required — significantly lower friction than green card sponsorship
Available to Mexican and Canadian nationals in USMCA-listed professional occupations

We draft the TN support letter, coordinate with licensed counsel, and track status through approval.

H1B1 Visa

Specialty Occupations. No Lottery.

For Chilean Nationals — Engineers and Technical Professionals

Dedicated visa category for Chilean nationals under the U.S.–Chile FTA — no lottery
Annual allocation rarely hits its cap — effectively functions as an uncapped pathway in practice
Covers specialty occupations including engineers, scientists, and technical professionals
Employer provides a job offer and a few filing details — we handle the rest with licensed counsel
Valid for 18 months, extendable — no green card sponsorship required to use it

We prepare the LCA, file the USCIS petition, and coordinate consulate appointment for the candidate.

Not sure which pathway fits your candidate? You don't need to figure it out. Tell us the role and nationality — we'll confirm the right approach within one business day.

Common Questions

What employers
ask us most.

Can the engineer move between projects or job sites?

Yes. TN and H1B1 are tied to the employer and occupation category — not a specific project or location. An engineer can work across multiple sites, states, or assignments within the same company and role without any visa action. If the employer changes, or the occupation shifts significantly, an updated support letter (TN) or new petition (H1B1) is required. We handle that update.

What happens if the project ends before the visa expires?

The visa is tied to the employment relationship, not the project. If your project wraps early and you want to move the engineer to another assignment, no visa action is needed — they stay on your payroll and move to the next job. If you're ending the employment entirely, the engineer will need to depart or transfer to a new employer. We advise on proper offboarding; mishandling this is a compliance risk for the employer.

What happens if the TN application is denied at the border?

TN adjudication is officer-discretion — a well-prepared packet reduces denial risk substantially, but it happens. If a candidate is denied, we identify the stated reason, correct any deficiency, and rebook the crossing. We select ports of entry with proven track records for engineering TN adjudications. This is part of our coordination, not a separate charge.

Can the engineer bring their family?

Yes. TN holders' dependents (spouse and children under 21) receive TD status and can live in the U.S. for the visa's duration. H1B1 dependents receive H-4 status. In both cases, dependents are not authorized to work. We assist with dependent applications as part of the placement.

Can a TN or H1B1 holder eventually get a green card?

Neither visa is formally dual-intent — workers should not enter with a stated intention to immigrate permanently. In practice, many TN and H1B1 holders later pursue green cards through employer sponsorship. This is legal and common, but requires careful handling at renewal. We raise this proactively if it becomes relevant during a placement.

Do I need to retain my own immigration attorney?

No. Licensed immigration counsel is part of our process on every placement — included, not billed separately. For complex situations (prior visa denials, credential questions, dependent complications), we may recommend direct engagement with counsel and will make that referral.
