• H-2a and H-2b Visas: Temporary visas allowing for seasonal workers.
• Labor Certifications: Employers may petition the DOL for visas if a shortage of citizen workers exists. A permanent labor certification allows for permanent hire of a foreign worker.
• Investor Visa: Provides opportunity to start or take over a U.S. business. Visas can be an E-2 (non-permanent) or a green card which allows Lawful Permanent Residence (LPR).

Employment Based Preference Categories
