An H-1B is a temporary, nonimmigrant visa issued to foreign nationals in specialized fields that typically require a minimum of a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent in experience and skills. This visa is mainly used by professionals in the IT, financial, engineering, and medical fields. The annual H-1B cap is 85,000 visas, with 65,000 allocated for bachelor’s degree holders and 20,000 for those with advanced degrees. H-1B visas are initially valid for three years but can be extended for up to six years. Since they are dual-intent visas, holders may pursue permanent residency while maintaining H-1B status. Spouses and children under 21 can also obtain H-4 visas as dependents of the H-1B holder.

I cried tears of joy for the first time in my
Life!! but besides that I had such a great experience with US Immigration Law Counsel, and I’m extremely grateful for everyone who helped me throughout the entire process. From the beginning, the team was professional, friendly, patient, and incredibly helpful. They kept me updated, explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, and genuinely made what could have been a stressful and confusing process feel simple and manageable.
I especially want to thank Nicolas Remolina and Sol Sarmiento, who both played a huge part in my experience. They were amazing throughout the process. They were always responsive, patient with my questions, kept me informed about what was happening and what I needed to do next, and made everything much easier to understand. I never felt like I was botheringg them or asking too many questions. That meant a lot to me. I genuinely felt like I had people holding my hand and guiding me through the process rather than leaving me to figure everything out on my own.
I also want to thank Zulema Zelaya, Britnie Tatum, Bianca Baldizon, Marisol Vaccaro, and everyone else behind the scenes who played a part in my case. Every interaction I had with the office was professional, welcoming, and helpful.
I also really appreciate the work the firm does through its social media (Saman Movassaghi Gonzalez,) to keep people informed and educated. Immigration can be intimidating and confusing, so having people who take the time to explain things clearly. even outside of your individual casee. really makes a difference.
I’m extremely happy with my experience and with how everything turned out. I’m genuinely grateful to the entire team and would absolutely recommend US Immigration Law Counsel to anyone looking for an immigration team that is knowledgeable, responsive, organized, patient, and genuinely cares about the people they’re helping.

UPDATE: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Amazing Experience with USILC!
I am beyond grateful to USILC and their incredible team for helping my son and me through our green card journey. What could have been an overwhelming and stressful process was made so much easier because of the knowledge, professionalism, patience, and attention to detail of this team.
From the very beginning, USILC walked us through every step of the process. They were extremely thorough in explaining the documents and information we needed to provide and made sure we understood what was required from us. I truly appreciated how carefully they reviewed everything and kept us informed throughout the process.
Immigration is such an important and emotional journey, especially when it involves your child and your family's future. Having a team that took the time to answer questions, provide guidance, and make sure we were prepared at every stage gave me tremendous peace of mind.
A very special thank you to Attorney Saman Gonzalez, Esq. She was always so professional and, most importantly, whenever I reached out, she made sure to respond in a timely manner. That responsiveness meant so much to me because during a process like this, having someone who will actually get back to you and address your concerns makes a huge difference.
I also want to give a heartfelt shout-out to Arantxa Ferreira, Certified Paralegal, and Marisol Vaccaro, Duty Paralegal. Thank you both for your patience, diligence, and the important work you did behind the scenes to help keep everything moving forward. Your assistance throughout this process was truly appreciated.
And then came the news we had been praying and waiting for — our applications were approved!🙏🏽🇺🇸
This approval means so much to us. This wasn't simply a stack of forms or a case number. It represented our future, our stability, and another major chapter in our lives. I am incredibly thankful that we had USILC guiding us through it.
To Attorney Saman Gonzalez, Esq., Arantxa Ferreira, Marisol Vaccaro, and the entire USILC team — THANK YOU! Your professionalism, thoroughness, communication, and genuine dedication made such a difference in our experience.
If you are looking for an immigration law firm to help guide you through your journey, I highly recommend USILC. Our experience from beginning to end was one of being informed, supported, and cared for.
Two applications. Two approvals. One incredibly grateful family.❤️🇺🇸🙏🏽
Thank you, USILC, for helping us reach this milestone!
My pre-consultation call with Maria went great. She exhibited politeness and asked direct, straightforward questions in preparation for my initial consultation.
