Transfer f1 visa to h1 visa by working as full time no tenure track instructor in a university but the contract is by semester?

Answered by attorney David Troy Cox
Immigration lawyer at CoxEsq, PC
You can get an H1B visa for the length of your contract, but not longer.  Your employer would have to renew the H1B visa each time.

Is it possible to apply for h1b while holding a student visa?

Answered by attorney Lynne Rogers Feldman
Immigration lawyer at Feldman Feldman Associates, PC
H's are all gone until October 2014. The earliest you can apply is April 1, 2014 unless you find a cap exempt employer. Without knowing a lot more about you it would be impossible to advise on other options but if you want to call the office and schedule a paid consultation we would be happy to advise you. You could of course get another I-20 and return to school until October 1, 2014.

Can I bring a French worker in the US through my LLC?

Answered by attorney Michael Alexander Yurasov-Lichtenberg (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Havens Lichtenberg PLLC
You certainly can petition the immigration authorities for a work visa for this French national. The petition might be for an E visa, L visa, or H visa; to recommend the best option, your attorney would need to know much more about your business and about the particular worker when the information you provided. It is possible that your worker's credentials and the nature of his work for you in the U.S. might qualify him for an O or P visa. You might also consider filing a petition for an immigrant visa (so called "green card petition") for your worker; however, it is a long process, and most employers prefer to start it when the worker is already in the U.S. on one of the listed work visas. The processing times and the costs will vary depending on the visa you will end up petitioning for, but, to give you ballpark figures, E, L, O, and P visas can take from 1.5 to 4 months (unless you are willing to spend $1225 for premium processing and get the petition adjudicated within 15 days) and cost $325 (petition fee) (plus $750 or $1500 ACWIA fee for H-1 visa plus $500 FPD fee for H or L visa plus $2000 / $2250 P.L.111-230 fee for H1/L1 visas if your business is required to pay it). H-1B petition cannot be filed until April 1 and, if approved, it would allow your employee to begin working for you in the U.S. from October 1. Attorney fees in most cases range from $3500 to $8000, depending on the type of the visa requested and complexity of the circumstances.
