The publications give overviews of nonimmigrant and<strong> immigrant visa options<\/strong> for foreign nationals to work in <strong>STEM fields<\/strong> in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These rules inform <strong>immigration practice<\/strong> procedures and should be followed by immigration officials deciding immigration petitions. On 24th January 2022, USCIS outlined the Department of Homeland Security&#8217;s declaration adding 22 new fields of study to the <strong>STEM optional training program <\/strong>through the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (<strong>SEVP<\/strong>). Also, the new updated guidance and initiatives related to STEM professionals include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>USCIS Provides Extra Guidance to Foreign Nationals in STEM Fields<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first publication lists the most likely <strong>nonimmigrant visa categories <\/strong>available for<strong> STEM workers<\/strong>, including H1B, O1A, L-1, TN, and F-1 OPT. The magazine also gives a general overview of these categories and answers various frequently asked questions (<strong>FAQs<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second follows a similar format yet focuses on immigrant visa options, including<strong> EB1, EB1, and EB3<\/strong>. Once more, an outline of every category is given, along with answers to a few FAQs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third publication covers, in less detail, both the nonimmigrant and <strong>immigrant visa options<\/strong> discussed in the initial two publications. It also includes a chart listing each of the aforementioned <strong>nonimmigrant categories.<\/strong> And one more chart with each of the related immigrant visa categories. The nonimmigrant chart demonstrates the necessary education, experience, or skills for each nonimmigrant category. Whether a job offer is required, and the duration of validity. The immigrant visa chart lists the required education,<strong> experience, or skills<\/strong> for each, and whether a job offer and\/or labor certification is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While these rules and initiatives don&#8217;t rise to the level of major policy or regulatory changes. They demonstrate a willingness from USCIS to facilitate a<strong> STEM professional\u2019s<\/strong> understanding of available temporary and permanent immigration options. As well as to work with efficient and predictable adjudication of relevant<strong> immigration applications<\/strong> by USCIS officers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-right\">[<a href=\"https:\/\/www.h1btransfersusa.com\/blog\/changing-from-adjustment-of-status-to-consular-processing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">Changing from Adjustment of Status to Consular Processing<\/span><\/a>]<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>These charts should give a helpful guide to <strong>foreign nationals<\/strong> in STEM who are looking for career opportunities in the United States. It should be noted, however, that the charts don&#8217;t cover every possible avenue. That may be available to a foreign national<strong> STEM worker <\/strong>who would like to live and work in the U.S. Foreign nationals searching for ways to work in the U.S. are encouraged to plan a <strong>consultation <\/strong>with an experienced attorney.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has issued a few new guides to
