Many people move to the U.S. for career opportunities that simply are not present in their home country or to simply work in a place they have dreamed of living in for most of their lives. There are a number of factors to take into consideration when it comes to immigrating for work purposes and discussing these issues with your employer is often helpful. However, it is imperative to take the right approach and ensure that your rights are protected.
In this blog, we will examine some of these issues and highlight the importance of having your employer on the same page when it comes to immigration matters.
Contracts, visas and more
There are a number of ways in which your job contract will affect you in terms of immigration.
