The H-1B program is established under Section 101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b) and Section 214 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which can be found in the U.S. Code at 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b). This program is implemented through regulations outlined in 20 C.F.R. part 655 and 8 C.F.R. § 214.2(h).

Vargas Gonzalez Delombard, LLP does not directly file H-1B petitions; however, we collaborate with attorneys who specialize in immigration law and focus on employment-based temporary worker visas.

What Is an H-1B Visa?

H-1B classification allows U.S. employers to temporarily employ foreign workers in “specialty occupations”—positions requiring:
Theoretical and practical application of highly specialized knowledge
At least a bachelor’s degree or equivalent in a specific specialty is required for entry (USCIS)


The program incorporates numerical caps, labor condition application (LCA) requirements, and strict timing rules.
