Thread: Possible Work Opportunity in Texas

Hi everybody.

I've had a recent job offer and thought this would be the best place to ask my questions.

There's a possibility I will be required to head up the American branch of a current UK company.
We have worked in the USA before but only for a week or two at a time, but now the company would be
looking for me to be based in the USA for minimum of 3 years.
The work itself is a specialist job with only less than 100 people in the world qualified to complete the work.

I have uk qualifications time served apprenticeship in engineering and 10 years experience in my field.

Would these attributes enable me to work in the USA?
I would also be bringing my wife and 3 year old son with me.
Would my wife be able to enter the country and work as well?

I've looked on-line but lots of it is in Jargon lol i think i could go to the USA on a h1-b visa is this correct?

Many thanks for any help provided

Hi Winty have you checked out the US immigration site? We do have a few members in the US, keep bumping the thread to hopefully get it noticed.

Hi,

I know this is a little late in replying, but if you still want me to answer your questions I can do....I am currently in the states with my husband who is on a H1B visa ;)
