H-3 Visa |
| |
The H-3 Visa
is specifically designed to enable you
to train in the U.S. in almost any
discipline. INS calls this loose
classification, 'any field of endeavor'.
This includes agriculture, technology,
communications and governmental
leadership. This loose classification
does not include people seeking graduate
medical training. Nurses and medical
students on vacation, however, may be
eligible for the H-3 Visa.
Your spouse and unmarried children under
the age of 21 are allowed to join you in
the U.S. under the H-4 status. Family
members are not permitted to work while
in the U.S.
Steps
The H-3 Visa is not self-petitioned An
employer must petition on behalf of you,
the trainee. The employer must provide
certain evidence about the training,
including a description of the training
program, your compensation (if any) and
reasons why you need the training.
The employer must then submit a petition
on Form I-129 with the regional INS
center that has jurisdiction over the
place where the training will be
offered.
Documents
Along with the requisite nonimmigrant
application documents, the H-3 Visa
requires your employer provide the
following:
- Proof that this training is not available in your home country, and
that this training will aid you in
your career.
- Proof that you will not engage
in willful employment while in the
U.S.
- Proof that the training is
formal in nature.
