Home/H-1B1 Visa

H-1B1 Visa

The H-1B1 Visa, established through treaties between the United States and Chile, as well as the United States and Singapore, beginning on January 1, 2004, is a specialized form of temporary non-immigrant worker visa. Unlike the broader H-1B visa, the H-1B1 visa is exclusively available to individuals from Chile and Singapore.

Eligibility Requirements
  • There must be a bona fide job offer from a U.S employer.
  • The offered position must be a specialty occupation that requires special ability and knowledge of the field you will be working in.
  • As this is a specialty occupation visa, the applicant must hold at least a bachelor’s degree, or its equivalent in a specific field. Work experience in the related field might be considered equal to a bachelor’s degree.

Family Members

The spouses and unmarried children (under the age of 21) of the H-1B1 visa holders can apply for an H-4 (Dependent visa) for the duration of the H-1B1 visa.

Is there a cap on H-1B1 Visa?
Unfortunately, yes. The current visa cap for Chileans stands at 1.400 and 5.400 for Singaporeans.
There are various fields with which you can be eligible for H-1B1 Visa. They include engineering, science, medicine, health care, agriculture, technology, education, and many special business occupations such as human resources. We always advise reaching an Immigration Attorney to discuss if your occupation is qualified for an H-1B1 visa.
Your maximum stay duration can be only one year, and it can be extended with one-year increments without any limit.
Unfortunately, no. This means that having a permanent residency (Green Card) application would be a bar for applying for or extending an H-1B1 visa
No. Unlike an H-1B visa, there is no need to file a petition with USCIS in this process. You just need to bring an approved LCA to the consulate interview.
