A Temporary Worker visa is a nonimmigrant visa for individuals who wish to work temporarily in the United States. There are several categories ("classifications") of Temporary Worker visas. Some of these classifications have annual limits. Your qualifications, type of work to be performed and other facts will determine what type of visa is required under U.S. immigration law.  Please click on the Work Visa drop down menu for  A Visa, C/D Visa, E Visa, G Visa, H Visa, I Visa, J Visa, L Visa, O Visa, P Visa, Q Visa, R Visa, and TN Visa to learn more about various Temporary Worker visas available for qualified candidates.
 

Work Permit/Visa

Hello Sir/Ma

I'm a Nigerian and I have a BTech degree in IT-Business Applications with about 3 years work experience in South Africa. I will like to get some work experience in the United States, I was wondering if I can possibly get a work permit/visa even without a job offer or contract?

Or how else can you advice me to go about it? I have a tourist visa and I visited over Xmas but I do not want to become an illegal immigrant in the USA.

Thanks

The job precedes the visa. So, you will need a job first,

L2 Visa

Hi There,

I am currently on an L2 visa with a current EAD, my husband and I have seperated and are going to divorce in the furture. I wish to stay in the US and work. I currently have a new man in my life and we live together. What are my options in terms of a new working visa? or is the easiest thing for my current partner and I to get married in the future?

L2 Visa

Unless you qualify for one of the work visas, a (genuine) marriage again after divorce seems to be the only option.

Info requested on work visa

Hi greeting,
I have Master degree in computer with around 10 years of work experience and I apply for L1 from my current Company. I didn’t issue bachelor’s degree from my x-college. At the time of VISA interview MASTER degree is sufficient or I have to arrange bachelor’s degree also.

Info requested on work visa

A degree is not a requirement for L-1 visas, but the consulates can ask to see any of your past documents.
