Visa & Imigration
We Help You Navigate Every Step — with Clarity and Confidence
The U.S. immigration system can be complex, especially for international nurses. That’s why we guide you through the process and coordinate with your future employer and legal experts — so you always know what to expect.
While we don’t offer legal services ourselves, we provide trusted orientation and connect you with qualified, independent immigration attorneys when needed.
Common Visa Options for Nurses
H-1B1 Visa – For Citizens of Chile and Singapore Only
• Temporary non-immigrant work visa (valid for 18-36 months, renewable)
• Faster processing and fewer restrictions than regular H-1B
• Ideal for nurses from Chile or Singapore looking to enter quickly
• Employer sponsorship required
TN Visa – For Citizens of Mexico Only
• Temporary non-immigrant work visa under USMCA (formerly NAFTA)
• Fast and renewable — but not a pathway to a Green Card
• Must be renewed periodically
• Can be a good option for qualified Mexican RNs in specific roles
Visa Retrogression: What You Need to Know
Sometimes, visa categories face delays due to high demand. This is known as visa retrogression — a backlog where visas are temporarily unavailable for certain countries or categories.
Can you still begin the process during retrogression?
Yes! You can complete licensing, credential evaluation, and interviews so you're fully ready when your visa becomes current.
We’ll explain exactly how (and if) retrogression affects your timeline.
Can My Family Join Me?
In most cases — yes.
Spouses and children under 21 are usually eligible to accompany you, depending on your visa type. We’ll help you understand the rules and how to plan your relocation as a family.
