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.

Working with Marisol Vacaro was a great experience. She helped us through the whole immigration process and made everything much easier to understand. Anytime we had questions, she was always willing to explain things and guide us step by step. Immigration can be stressful, but having Marisol helping us made us feel a lot more confident about everything. We really appreciate her help and support throughout the process. Thank you!
Britnie is always on point every time we call the law firm. She is so helpful and very kind as well. We are very pleased with everyone at this law office. Highly recommend

I'm really impressed
Thank you so much Marisol Vaccaro
Attorney Oni Taffi was absolutely amazing throughout our entire immigration process. She was extremely helpful, detailed, and professional from start to finish, making what could have been a stressful experience so much smoother. We were very nervous about our interview, but Attorney Oni took the time to thoroughly prepare us, explain every step, and make us feel confident and at ease. Thanks to her guidance and the support of the entire Immigration Law Counsel team, our permanent residency was a complete success! We’re truly grateful and would 100% recommend their services to anyone seeking knowledgeable and trustworthy immigration representation.
Immigration law counsel did an outstanding job. They assisted my mother with obtaining her permanent residency card. We want to thank all the team members and more specifically Carolina Lacayo that processed our application and ensured everything is in order. Carolina was very detail oriented, very professional and very communicative throughout each step of the process. Thank you again ILC and Carolina.
If you need immigration help and don’t know where to start, this is your sign to stop shopping around for other attorneys and call this office and this office only. We just concluded our case and yes, It took time and $. But it was absolutely worth it. Our paralegal Arantxa has been the most patient and dedicated person I’ve ever met. I was worried, scared and uneducated on this matter but she did amazing and walked me through the whole process with true professionalism. I want to thank Attorney Saman Movassagui for being our preparer and also constantly informing and educating the public. Last but not least, a special shout out to Attorney Oni Taffe for prepping us for the final interview. We truly believe we wouldn’t have had such a successful turnout if it wasn’t for her preparation. So please do not skip this step if you’re in the process!
We will be forever thankful ✨❤️🇺🇸
