Ground yourself in immigration fundamentals before tackling visa, sponsorship, or status-related tasks.

Covers universal concepts that apply across jurisdictions: the immigrant vs nonimmigrant distinction,
sponsorship mechanisms, status maintenance requirements, and core terminology. Includes US-specific
sub-primers covering nonimmigrant work visas (H-1B, L-1, O-1, TN), permanent residence pathways
(employment-based EB-1/EB-2/EB-3, family-based categories), employer sponsorship workflows,
USCIS processing times, premium processing options, and compliance requirements.

Essential for HR teams handling international employees, legal review of employment contracts with
visa sponsorship clauses, job description writers specifying sponsorship eligibility, and anyone
navigating immigration processes.
