My mid-sized business does not support visas.
I look at it as something so hard and complex that only the Googles and Amazons of the world can play.
Are there resources or professionals in the HN community that lay out the process and the costs?
- _p6xs 12y agoThe J1 visa for interns (current or former students) [1] and trainees (graduates with 2+ years of experience or others with 5+ years of experience) [2] is a very low overhead visa (just one form) and not subject to caps. So, it is very different from the H1B. If you decide to hire a refugee on a J1 visas, I would be glad to help you sort it out. Please contact me at [email redacted]. The maximum duration for these visas is 18 months, but the Obama administration may reauthorize "Temporary Protected Status" [3] for Syrian nationals allowing them to stay in the country until it was deemed safe to return (which may be a decade away).
