Visas for Nurses and Health Care Workers

Southern California Health Care Immigration Attorneys

The nursing and health care industries in the United States are among the most understaffed industries in the country. Hospitals, clinics and other medical facilities typically require the use of foreign health care workers to fill positions that cannot be filled with domestic workers. Nurses and other health care workers are exempt from the PERM Labor Certification process because the United States has made the determination that there is a shortage of workers in these areas in the United States.

At the law firm of Russakow, Ryan & Johnson, our experienced immigration lawyers help employers and employees obtain visas for nurses and other health care workers. We have helped hospitals and other medical facilities apply for H-1B and L-1A visas on behalf of these foreign health care workers and establish legal status for employees in the United States. We can also provide experienced service for other employment-based immigration issues.
