DESTINATION

Immigration policies worldwide are very challenging and complex. With the world in the midst of a great unemployment crisis, many countries are becoming protective of their local labor, thus attaching many restrictions on foreign labor and making work visas difficult to obtain. As part of a worldwide investment plan, multinational companies need to be educated on work authorization and visas for their assignees so that business opportunities stay parallel with immigration timeframes and expatriation plans.

By using Living In the US of A®, we make the process of obtaining visas swift and virtually invisible to the transferee. We are a full-end-to-end-immigration service manager, a team of multi-lingual coordinators, lawyers, paralegals, associates and assistants with the facilities ready to streamline the complex process of employment authorization and visas worldwide.

We assist you between your home country and US from our offices and partners worldwide. Both company and transferees benefit from the hassle-free red-tape policies and paperwork.

We work directly through legal representation and benefit from an excellent behind- the-scenes network of several providers (sworn translators, notaries, facilitators, etc) which solidifies our infra-structure and makes the process as cost efficient as possible.

We are a corporate firm working only for corporations. Family visas services can be performed by us as long as the employers are our contacts.
