Re: Permanent or H1B visa

You should look at the H-1B as a "step" toward and not a "substitute" for lawful permanent residence (the "green card") in the United States.

At your request, we can send you our firm's:

"OVERVIEW OF THE H-1B (FORMERLY, H-1) NONIMMIGRANT PROFESSIONAL AND SPECIALTY OCCUPATION WORKER (FORMERLY, DISTINGUISHED MERIT AND ABILITY) VISA PETITION PROCESS".
