<\/p>\r\n

There are two types of work visas:
a) Permanent (Immigrant)
b) Temporary (Nonimmigrant)<\/p>\r\n\r\n

a) Permanent worker (Immigrant)
A permanent worker is a person who is authorized to live and work permanently in the United States. Each year, the United States government grants a maximum of 140,000 immigrant visas for foreigners, and their family nucleus, who intend to emigrate based on their skills to fill jobs. Some immigrant visas require that the worker already have a job offer from an employer in the United States in order to apply.
In addition, some visa categories also require a labor certification approved by the US Department of Labor. (DOL, for its acronym in English). Interesting, right?<\/p>\r\n\r\n

b) Temporary worker (Nonimmigrant)
A temporary worker is a person who wants to enter the United States temporarily for a specific purpose. Once in the United States, temporary workers must limit themselves to the activity or reason for granting them a nonimmigrant visa. Usually, the process must be initiated by the United States employer by petitioning for the temporary worker.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

4. THROUGH AN ASYLUM APPLICATION<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Asylum protects foreign persons who have suffered persecution or fear persecution in their country of origin because of:
a) Race;
b) Religion;
c) Nationality;
d) Belonging to a particular social group;
e) Political opinion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

By 2018, the countries of origin with the highest number of refugees were Bhutan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Burma, Ukraine, Eritrea, and Russia. Citizens of Bhutan and those of Congo make up 29 and 22 percent of asylum admissions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The two ways to obtain asylum in the United States are the Affirmative Process and the Asylum Defense Process.<\/p>\r\n

To obtain asylum through the affirmative process, the applicant must be present in the United States and must apply for asylum status regardless of how they arrived in the United States or their current immigration status. In addition, the asylum application must be filed within one year of your last arrival in the United States, unless you can prove:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

1 – That the circumstances changed and directly affect your asylum
eligibility or extraordinary circumstances related to delays in submitting the
application; And<\/p>\r\n\r\n

2 \u2013 That Under the circumstances, you submitted your request within a reasonable period of time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

An Asylum Defense application occurs when you apply for asylum as a defense in your deportation case in Court. For an asylum prosecution to be defensive, you must be in deportation proceedings in the Immigration Court. The requirement to submit the asylum petition within the first year of the last entry into the United States also applies to the asylum defense process.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
