Hello,
I'm a citizen of Ukraine, but currently I live in Belarus. I would like to come to the US and legally work under H-1 visa.
As far as I understand, an american company must issue a petition for me. Here's what I read on the US visas website:
"In order to be considered as a nonimmigrant under the above classifications the applicant's prospective employer or agent must file Form I-129, Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker, with the United States Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services in the Department of Homeland Security (BCIS). Once approved, the employer or agent is sent a notice of approval, Form I-797. It should be noted that the approval of a petition shall not guarantee visa issuance to an applicant found to be ineligible under provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act. "
So I need a company who can employ me and write this petition. How can I find such a company?
Please help.
Alexander
