Guidance on Applying for a Temporary Worker Visa
To apply for a temporary worker visa, the specific type you seek might require a labor certification approval. This step would need to be initiated by your prospective employer. Additionally, your employer is typically responsible for filing a temporary worker petition for you. Following approval from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), you can proceed with your temporary worker visa or work permit application.
The application steps for a temporary visa can differ based on the visa category. However, the general process typically includes:
- Fill out the Nonimmigrant Visa Application form (DS-160).
- Print and keep a copy of the form for your interview.
- Attach a valid photo that meets the required specifications.
- Arrange an interview at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in your home country.
- Pay the applicable fees, compile the required documents, and get ready for the interview.
Post-interview, your application might undergo additional processing. You’ll be notified of the outcome and, if approved, can start making arrangements for your travel to the U.S.
