Visa Sponsorship

At Opti NextGen, we specialize in visa sponsorship services, facilitating international talent recruitment for companies across the United States. Our streamlined process ensures full regulatory compliance while providing expert guidance and support to both candidates and client companies throughout the visa sponsorship journey.

Visa Sponsorship Requirements

Successfully navigating the visa sponsorship process requires fulfilling specific U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) requirements, including:

  • Job Offer:

    A legitimate, documented job offer from a U.S.-based employer.

  • Labor Certification:

    Required for certain visa types (e.g., H-1B visa) to confirm no qualified U.S. workers are available for the role.

  • Qualification Matching:

    Ensuring the candidate meets the required qualifications for the visa category pursued.

  • Employer Compliance:

    Verification that the sponsoring employer meets all legal requirements and can financially support the sponsored employee.
