Decades of Experience in All Employment-Based Immigration Matters
An EB-1(c) visa is reserved for managerial or executive employees or employee-owners of businesses with operations in both the U.S. and overseas. The purpose of this classification is to permit the employee to carry out the same or similar function at the U.S. "branch office."
Petitions for immigrant classifications of this character do not require a labor certification. All that is required is documentation of the existence of a U.S. and foreign-based operation of at least one year in duration; the appropriate ownership and control of both operations, one to another; the employee's employment in a managerial or executive capacity abroad for one year out of the past three; and the intention to employ that individual in a similar capacity at the U.S. branch office.
An individual with this immigrant preference classification is entitled to immigrate in the order of the date the petition is filed, otherwise known as the priority date. Immigrant visa availability is a function of the number of visas available in any given year, the number of petitions already on file for the particular preference classification and the country of birth of the applicant or his or her spouse.
Swanson & Swanson immigration law specialists can tell you more about business executive and manager recruitment during your initial consultation with us in Los Angeles, or your phone call, e-mail or fax message.
