FordMurray is pleased to release two new H-1B Guides for 2019: the H-1B Employers Guide and H-1B Guide for Individuals.
While both guides are filled with up-to-date information on the upcoming H-1B Cap Lottery process, they are designed to answer the specific questions we receive from employers and individuals about the H-1B petition process.
H-1B Employers Guide
The Employers Guide was written with today’s Human Resource Leaders and In House Counsel in the mind. We added detailed, up-to-date information – more than doubling the information in previous guides.
