Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the process take?

Timelines vary. B-1 interviews often in weeks; L-1 petitions 2–4 months. We provide a timeline assessment in our proposal.

Can we just use an ESTA for business work?

ESTA is for "visitors" only. Productive work on ESTA risks denial and bans. Always check eligibility.

Do you offer fixed fees?

Yes. Corporate budgeting requires certainty. We quote per project, not per hour.

What happens if a visa is denied?

We work "risk-first" and only take viable cases. If denied, we discuss appeals or alternatives pre-planned in our strategy.

Can family members accompany?

Yes, for most long-term visas (L-1, E-2). Spouses can often work in the US too.

Do you handle urgent deployments?

Yes. Flag this immediately. We can advise on Premium Processing or expedited appointments.
