Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

How can we get her to America?

Hello, and thanks for your assistance. My girlfriend's mom, a Japanese businesswoman, wishes to relocate to America. We are wondering what steps (if any) can be taken to get her over here. From what I understand, it has become quite difficult since 9.11.

Japanese business owners may be eligible for treaty visas (E-1) or transfer visas (L-1). If those categories do not quite fit, your girlfriend's mother may be eligible for a worker visa (H-1B). Plesase feel free to contact me for more info at 415-834-1884. Thanks, Anja Freudenthal
