- H1B | BUSCHKIN LAW FIRM
Back Specialty Occupations The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that permits a company to hire workers in specialty occupations. This visa category requires that the beneficiary (the foreign worker) has a bachelor’s degree, and the petitioner (the U.S. company) can employ the worker for up to six years. This is a very popular visa because, unlike many other non-immigrant visas that make applying for a green card very difficult and require foreign workers to maintain a residence in their home country, the H-1B visa permits “dual intent.” Dual intent allows one to apply for a green card while in the U.S. without running into problems. Requirements and eligibility QUALIFICATIONS LABOR CONDITION APPLICATION (LCA) Prospective specialty occupation and distinguished fashion model employers/agents must obtain a certification of an LCA from the DOL. The application requires the employer/agent to attest that it will comply with the following labor requirements: The employer/agent will pay the H-1B worker a wage which is no less than the wage paid to similarly qualified workers or, if greater, the prevailing wage for the position in the geographic area in which the H-1B worker will be working. The employer/agent will provide working conditions that will not adversely affect other similarly employed workers. At the time of the labor condition application there is no strike or lockout at the place of employment. Notice of the filing of the labor condition application with the DOL has been given to the union bargaining representative or has been posted at the place of employment. Application Process Processing times and Period of Stay/Extension of Stay Labor certification is done prior to filing the H-1B petition, and it usually takes about 2 weeks to get an answer from the Department of Labor. Premium processing is available and you can have an answer in 15 calendar days. Premium processing will cost you an additional $1,440, but it is generally well worth it to keep your place in line. Family of H-1B Visa holders H-1B visa holders can bring their spouse and children under 21 years of age to the U.S. under the H-4 visa category as dependents. While dependents are permitted to remain in the U.S., an H-4 visa holder is not eligible to work in the U.S. They can, however, attend school, obtain a driver’s license, and open a bank account while in the U.S. The spouse of H-1B non-immigrants can file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, as long as the H-1B non-immigrant has already started the process of seeking employment-based lawful permanent resident status.

- EB3 | BUSCHKIN LAW FIRM
Back Employment-Based This is a green card category where your employer sponsors you for a green card. The employer must first go through the Labor Certification process to show that they could not find a qualified U.S. worker.

Requirements and eligibility REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Application process Processing times and Period of Stay These are green cards so as long as you meet the residency requirements and do not violate the terms of the visa you can keep them for life. Regarding processing time, with each step discussed above in mind, we can make an estimate on what the processing time will be. However, there are a number of factors that can drastically change the amount of time your EB-3 green card will take. PERM Labor Certification process: about 8 months without complications. Form I-140: average of 6 months depending on the caseload. Premium processing shortens your petition’s processing time to 15 calendar days Waiting for your priority date: two months to over a decade depending on country of origin. Form I-485: average of 6 months and cannot be expedited by premium processing.

- B1 Visa | BUSCHKIN LAW FIRM
Back Temporary Business Visitor This Visa is required for temporary business visitors to conduct activities of a commercial or professional nature. For example, consult with business associates, negotiate a contract, or attend a business conference Temporary business - participating in business activities of a commercial or professional nature in the United States, including, but not limited to: Consulting with business associates Traveling for a scientific, educational, professional or business convention, or a conference on specific dates Settling an estate Negotiating a contract Participating in short-term training Transiting through the United States: certain persons may transit the United States with a B-1 visa Deadheading (certain aircrew members may enter the United States as deadhead crew with a B-1 visa) VISITOR VISA VS. VISA WAIVER PROGRAM The main difference between these two is that a Visitor Visa is used for persons who wish to enter the United States to engage in temporary tourism, business, or professional activities related to their employment or business abroad. The primary intent for this visa type is that it’s for business purposes. B-visa visitors are not permitted to engage in employment while in the US. Meanwhile, the Visa Waiver Program does not need a B1 Visa to enter the United States, enabling most citizens or nationals of participating countries to travel to the United States for tourism or business for stays of 90 days or less without obtaining a visa. Requirements and eligibility If you apply for a B-1 visa, you must demonstrate to a consular officer that you qualify for a U.S. visa that presumes that every B-1 applicant is an intending immigrant. You must overcome this legal presumption by demonstrating the following: The purpose of your trip is to enter the United States for business of a legitimate nature You plan to remain for a specific limited period of time You have sufficient funds to cover the expenses of the trip and your stay in the United States You have a residence outside the United States that you have no intention of abandoning, as well as other binding ties that will ensure your return abroad at the end of the visit You are otherwise admissible to the United States Application Process The order of these steps and how you complete them may vary by the U.S. Embassy or Consulate. Please consult the instructions on the U.S. Embassy or Consulate website . STEP 1: COMPLETE THE ONLINE VISA APPLICATION Form DS-160 - You must: Complete the online visa application. Print the application form confirmation page to bring to your interview. You will upload your photo while completing the online Form DS-160. Must be in the format explained in the Photograph Requirements . STEP 2: PAY THE B1 VISA FEES Pay the non-refundable visa application fee ($160). If your visa is approved, you may also need to pay a visa issuance fee, if applicable to your nationality, the amount depends on the relationship that your home country has with the US. STEP 3: SCHEDULE AN INTERVIEW Schedule an appointment for your visa interview at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in the country where you live. Wait times for interview appointments vary by location, season, and visa category, so you should apply for your visa early. STEP 4: GATHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION Passport valid for travel to the United States – Your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond your period of stay in the United States. Non-immigrant Visa Application, Form DS-160 confirmation page. Application fee payment receipt, if you are required to pay before your interview. Photo – You will upload your photo while completing the online Form DS-160. If the photo upload fails, you must bring one printed photo in the format explained in the Photograph Requirements. Additional documents may be requested to establish if you are qualified. For example, additional requested documents may include evidence of: A letter which describes the purpose of your trip. Financial or bank statements to prove you have the finances to stay in the US. Ties to your home country such as family, job contract, lease, or property deed, which prove you will return. Criminal records or letters from authorities stating that you do not have prior convictions. If you have visited the US before, bring documents relevant to your prior visits. If you work, bring a letter from your employer and payslips for the last three months. A letter from the company detailing the purpose of the trip and your job position.

You will be asked about your background, your purpose of visit, what business you will be doing in the United States, and whether you intend to return. Ink-free, digital fingerprint scans are taken as part of the application process. After your visa interview, the consular officer may determine that your application requires further administrative processing. The consular officer will inform you if this is required. STEP 6: ENTERING THE UNITED STATES A visa allows a foreign citizen to travel to the U.S. and request permission to enter. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials at the port-of-entry have authority to permit or deny admission to the United States. If you are allowed to enter the United States, the CBP official will provide an admission stamp or a paper Form I-94, Arrival/Departure Record. Processing times and Period/Extension of Stay The processing times for the B1 visa is not exact. It can take a couple of weeks or a few months for your visa to be processed. This depends on the workload of the US Embassy and other factors that they take into consideration. After the processing time is complete, you will be notified about whether you got the visa or not. You can review the visa processing times for Visa Appointment depending on your home country. The initial validity for which the B1 visa is given is 6 months. For extension you must: Prove that you have not completed all the business that you need to complete. Get letters of confirmation from your employer or company that proves your stay in the US is essential for business. Remember that you are not allowed to work for a US company and earn income Prove financial stability and that you have enough money to stay in the United States. At the port of entry, an immigration official must authorize your admission to the United States. If you wish to stay beyond the time indicated on the Form I-94 without departing from the United States, you must file Form I-539, Application to Extend/Change Nonimmigrant Status. Submit any required supporting documents to USCIS. VWP: ESTA application, participating countries, passport requirements ESTA is an automated system that determines the eligibility of visitors to travel to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP). Authorization via ESTA does not determine whether a traveller is admissible to the United States. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers determine admissibility upon travellers' arrival. HOW TO APPLY FOR AN ESTA? PARTICIPATING COUNTRIES You must be a citizen or national of the following countries to be eligible to travel to the United States under the VWP. PASSPORT REQUIREMENTS Travel under the Visa Waiver Program is restricted to travellers possessing passports with specified security features. Visa Waiver Program requirements are: The passport must have a machine-readable zone on the biographic page.

- Franchise Rule | BUSCHKIN LAW FIRM
Back FTC Franchise Rule The Franchise Rule gives prospective purchasers of franchises the material information they need in order to weigh the risks and benefits of such an investment. The Rule requires franchisors to provide all potential franchisees with a disclosure document containing 23 specific items of information about the offered franchise, its officers, and other franchisees. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Franchise Rule is a disclosure rule that requires a franchisor offering or selling a franchise located in the United States of America to provide the prospective franchisee with the relevant information about the franchise. Under Subpart B of the FTC Franchise Rule , the franchisor shall be in breach of the FTC Franchise Rule if it: (a) fails to furnish the prospective franchisee with the disclosure document fourteen calendar days before the prospective franchisee signs the franchise agreement or makes any payment in connection with the franchise; or (b) if the franchisor unilaterally modifies the terms and conditions of the franchise agreement without furnishing the prospective franchisee with a copy of the revised franchise agreement at least seven calendar days before the prospective franchisee signs the revised franchise agreement.

- Power of Attorneys | BUSCHKIN LAW FIRM
Back Durable Power of Attorney Estate Planning Services If you were to suddenly find yourself incapacitated, a durable power of attorney would give a trusted person the ability to make some of those important decisions for you. WHAT IS A DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY? A durable power of attorney is the legal right granted by you to a third party to make financial decisions in your name if you become incapacitated. Of course, since this third party has so much legal authority in your name, it is extremely important that you appoint someone whom you can absolutely trust and who also possesses the ability to handle your legal and financial matters. WHY DO I NEED A DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY? No one ever wants to think that the worst will happen, but having a power of attorney can protect you if you were to become incapacitated due to an injury, stroke, illness, dementia, or Alzheimer’s. The person with power of attorney will be able to help you pay your bills, take care of your investments, and buy or sell real estate and other assets. This can ensure that you are still able to care for your family, even while you are unable to work. Buschkin Law Firm can help you legally draft a power of attorney. We will work closely with you to ensure that you are as protected as possible. Contact If you are in the US or planning to come to the US and would like to schedule a consultation, let's connect.

- Probate | BUSCHKIN LAW FIRM
Back PROBATE & PROBATE AVOIDANCE Protect your loved ones from the hardship of distributing your estate, or get help managing the estate of a loved one. HOW WE CAN HELP: Assist with the probate process to ease the burden on your loved ones Speed up the process for you, ensure that it’s done right the first time, and make sure that your application gets approved Navigate restrictions so that you qualify for all of the assistance you need When you or a loved one passes away, an estate’s transition, called probate, goes into effect. Usually, the family is responsible, alongside a probate attorney, for distributing probate assets. Probate can go smoothly if funds and wills were created and are accessible, but not all people prepare for it. Probate starts with submitting a last will and testament, if there is one, and then moves onto organizing assets and property into a catalog of inventory. Creditor, attorney, and court fees are paid first. Only then is the estate legally transferred to beneficiaries and heirs. We are here to help you plan to avoid probate or represent you in probate court. PROBATE ASSETS VS. NON-PROBATE ASSETS Probate assets include assets for which the deceased person was the sole owner or jointly owned assets which lacked provisions for automatic succession of ownership at death. Non-probate assets include jointly held property for which ownership includes the “right of survivorship.” In this situation, the surviving owner automatically owns the property when the other owner dies. We can help you avoid probate by creating a revocable living trust to plan for the management of your assets in the event of your incapacity or death. Avoiding probate with the help of a qualified attorney is especially important for high-net-worth individuals. Many jointly owned properties and certain types of bank accounts can be set up so that they will automatically be transferred to the person you wish to inherit them at your death. PROBATE AVOIDANCE Probate can be a lengthy process. Beneficiaries must wait until the process of paying back creditors during probate is completed to receive their inheritance. Financial costs are involved in commencing and administering a probate proceeding including filing court fees, the fees of the Personal Representative, and the fees of the attorney administering the estate. When a Will goes through probate, it becomes a public record. In contrast, Trusts can avoid the process of probate and remain private. It is always recommended to avoid ancillary probate for out-of-state real and tangible personal property owned. MAKE IT SIMPLE Legislation has made the probate process as painless as possible, but there are always hiccups along the way. We’ll take the stress out of it by helping when wills are challenged, documents are lost, or creditors get confused. The law can be confusing, especially in times of grief, and people might try to exploit your situation. We make sure that doesn’t happen and provide complete clarity about your affairs. We also make probate faster, so you pay less in court fees. We understand the loss of a loved one is difficult and painful. We never want you to put off your own care for lengthy, contested probate. We’re committed to supporting you and ensuring that the process goes as smoothly as possible. COMMON QUESTIONS HOW CAN I PLAN TO AVOID OR MINIMIZE PROBATE? The best way to ensure that your family won’t be tangled up in a costly and lengthy probate case is to have a fully funded, revocable living trust. Your living trust should be fully funded with your assets. Any assets that are still in your name will have to go through probate, so make sure that all of your assets are titled in your trust. WHAT IF THERE IS NO WILL? If a family member dies without leaving a will and there are significant assets or property that you believe you have a claim to, it would be wise to hire an estate administration attorney to protect your interests. If a person dies without a will and has no living family members closer than a first cousin, relatives who believe they have a claim will have to prove so in a kinship hearing. This is a lengthy process requiring multiple hearings, but with experienced attorneys on your team, you will be spared much of the difficulty. DO I NEED AN ATTORNEY FOR PROBATE? It’s recommended because the process is so formalistic, thorough, and complex, and you don’t want to expose yourself to liability.

- Guardianship | BUSCHKIN LAW FIRM
Back GUARDIANSHIP It’s always best to be prepared. Make tough times easier on your family by setting up advance directives. In an emergency, assign your own guardian. When an individual no longer has the mental capacity to manage his or her financial affairs and property or to make personal decisions relating to health care and residence, guardianship may be necessary. A guardianship may also be necessary if there are concerns that someone is being financially exploited or physically abused. Guardianship is the legal process of petitioning the court to appoint a guardian to make decisions on behalf of the alleged incapacitated person (AIP). Once appointed, the guardian stands in the shoes of the individual and is in charge of making personal decisions for the individual and/or decisions about his/her property. The process begins with a court proceeding brought by a petitioner who may be concerned about an elderly relative, friend or neighbor who doesn't appear to be caring for himself or herself properly. The petitioner may want to be the guardian of the person they are concerned about, or the petitioner may want to have a professional guardian appointed. We’re committed to helping make the best choice by providing the compassion, care, and dedication you deserve. With a guardian, you can renounce worry and trust that someone is securing your well-being and wishes. Your loved ones can relax knowing that you’re safe. The court will also provide oversight to ensure your comfort. Having a strong support system always generates happiness, especially when you need help making decisions to enhance your quality of life. It also helps protect you from scammers and those who will try to neglect your rights. If you don’t choose a guardian or power of attorney in advance, the court will choose a reliable option for you, but it’s better to pick your own. It will ensure your independence for longer and give you the freedom to live the way you want.

- Last Will and Testament | BUSCHKIN LAW FIRM
Back Compassionate Last Will and Testament Estate Planning Services We can help you draft a last will and testament that leaves you feeling confident and secure. WHO NEEDS A LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT? Anyone over 18 with personal assets should have a last will and testament. Moreover, anyone with loved ones should execute a will. Your testament details your wishes regarding young (minor) children, relatives, and pets under your care. It can even specify your funeral arrangements and service. WHY CREATE A WILL? A person drafts a last will and testament to state in writing, the persons or charities that will receive his or her assets after death. There are many reasons to create a last will and testament, but the most obvious is to ease the burden on family and friends after you pass away. Your last will and testament officially notify all parties of how you want your estate assets distributed and to whom. As the testator (the person drafting the will), you choose someone to oversee the estate after you are deceased, known as the executor. He or she is responsible for managing and disbursing your assets in accordance with your last will and testament and must act in the best interest of the estate when making decisions that affect those assets. Your last will and testament allows you to have the final say in these decisions. That’s why you need an experienced attorney to guide you through the drafting and execution of this critical document. With Buschkin Law Firm on your side, there will be no need to worry. We’ll help you draft a last will and testament that completely attests to your wishes. Alongside estate planning, we also focus on long-term care planning and probate/trust administration.
