US work authorization is separate from a Polish assignment. A Polish employment agreement, assignment order or social-security certificate does not authorize productive work in the United States. The required US petition, visa or other employment authorization must be in place before work begins.

Compare common US employment routes

These summaries explain route purpose only. A specific vacancy must not be labeled with a visa category unless the actual project supports that route.

H-2ATemporary agricultural work

For temporary or seasonal agricultural jobs. The US employer or eligible agent completes the Department of Labor and USCIS process.

H-2BTemporary non-agricultural work

For temporary non-agricultural need, subject to labor certification, petition requirements and numerical limits where applicable.

H-1BSpecialty occupation

For qualifying specialty-occupation roles. Cap-subject cases use the USCIS registration and selection process unless an exemption applies.

L-1Intracompany transfer

For qualifying managers, executives or specialized-knowledge employees moving within a qualifying corporate group.

O-1Extraordinary ability or achievement

Requires a qualifying US petitioner and substantial evidence meeting the applicable extraordinary-ability or achievement standard.

EB-3Employment-based immigrant route

Frequently asked questions

Short answers to common questions about US employment routes and MaViAl vacancies.

Does a job listing guarantee a US visa or work authorization?

No. A job listing or CV review does not guarantee selection, a petition approval, visa issuance, admission to the United States or employment authorization.

Which US work visa routes are employer-led?

H-1B, H-2A, H-2B and L-1 depend on a qualifying petitioner and category-specific requirements. O-1 also requires a qualifying petitioner, such as a US employer or US agent.

What is H-2A used for?

H-2A is for temporary or seasonal agricultural employment when the required US Department of Labor and USCIS procedures are completed.

What is H-2B used for?

H-2B is for temporary non-agricultural employment when the employer establishes a qualifying temporary need and completes the required labor-certification and petition process.

What is required for L-1?

L-1 requires a qualifying relationship between the foreign and US organizations and qualifying employment abroad, generally at least one continuous year within the preceding three years.

Who can file an O-1 petition?

An O-1 petition may be filed by a US employer or US agent; a foreign employer may use a US agent. The beneficiary cannot self-petition.

How much is the petition-based temporary worker visa application fee?

The US Department of State lists a USD 205 nonimmigrant visa application processing fee for petition-based H, L and O visa categories. Reciprocity or issuance fees may also apply.
