Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about our firm, the U.S. immigration process, and the visa categories we advise on.
About the Firm
No. We are a Gulf-based immigration advisory and client-support firm. We do not practice U.S. law or provide legal advice. Legal services are provided by our U.S. partner law firm.
We help you understand your options, prepare you for the process, organize and quality-check your documentation, and coordinate everything with U.S. counsel — acting as your single, local point of contact.
Our US Partner Law Firm, which is admitted to practice U.S. immigration law. Petitions, filings, and immigration strategy are theirs.
No. No firm can — immigration decisions are made by U.S. government agencies. We focus on putting your case in the strongest honest position.
About the Process
We are based in Dubai, UAE, and serve clients across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, and the wider GCC.
Usually not to begin. Much of the process — assessment, documentation, and filing — is handled remotely, with consular steps later, often at a U.S. consulate in the Gulf.
It varies widely by category and nationality, and backlogs can apply. We'll give you a realistic timeline for your specific route.
About Specific Visas
Most investors look at EB-5 (green card by investment). We'll help you weigh it against alternatives with counsel.
Likely EB-2 or the EB-2 National Interest Waiver, the latter allowing you to self-petition without an employer.
Look at L-1A (executives/managers, including new-office setup) and L-1B (specialized-knowledge employees).
No. The H-1C category is closed (it expired in 2009). Nurses today generally pursue EB-3, and some advanced-practice roles may fit H-1B or EB-2/NIW.
The H-2B visa may fit. Timing matters because of the annual cap.
