"The Migration USA website says that they have 20 years of US Immigration experience and a meticulous approach to advice. That was clear right from the start. They had both my company's and my family's applications approved in great time. Before we knew it, we were in our California dream location. Wonderful. Thanks."

We've done it all 100s of times before. We ensure that we get to know you and exactly what you need to achieve in the US before you decide to make it happen.

Family

Family-based green cards allow close relatives of U.S. citizens or permanent residents to live permanently in the U.S. Marriage-based routes require a genuine relationship and lead directly to residency, sometimes with initial conditions. The fiancé pathway allows entry to marry first, then transition to residency. Both focus heavily on proving authenticity and intent to build a real life together.

Employment

Employment-based visas allow foreign nationals to work in the U.S. either temporarily or long term, depending on the role and qualifications. Short-term options cover training, exchanges, or limited assignments, while long-term routes support skilled professionals, specialists, or individuals with exceptional ability. Company transfer pathways enable employees of multinational businesses to move to a U.S. branch. All routes require a clear job role, employer involvement, and compliance with immigration and labour rules.

Highly Skilled

Highly skilled pathways are designed for individuals with advanced qualifications, exceptional ability, or significant professional achievements. They allow entry or permanent residence based on expertise in fields such as business, science, arts, or technology. Some routes require employer sponsorship, while others allow self-petitioning based on national interest or proven excellence. Strong evidence of impact, recognition, and experience is key. These pathways offer faster or more flexible access to working and living in the U.S. compared to standard employment routes.

Investing

Investment-based pathways allow foreign nationals to live and work in the U.S. by committing capital to a business. Options range from temporary visas for active investors managing a company to permanent residence through larger investments that create jobs. Applicants must show lawful source of funds, real business activity, and economic benefit to the U.S. These routes suit entrepreneurs and business owners seeking control over their work and long-term presence in the U.S.

Expanding your Business

Business expansion pathways allow overseas companies to establish a presence in the U.S. by opening a new office or transferring key staff. This typically involves demonstrating an active, viable business abroad and a credible plan to operate in the U.S. The focus is on growth, job creation, and ongoing operations rather than passive investment. These routes are ideal for entrepreneurs and companies looking to scale internationally while maintaining control of their business.

Starting or Buying a Business

Entrepreneurs can enter the U.S. by launching a new business or purchasing an existing one, provided the venture is active, viable, and capable of generating income and jobs. The focus is on genuine commercial activity, ownership, and day-to-day involvement. Applicants must show a clear business plan, lawful investment funds, and intent to operate the business. These pathways suit hands-on owners seeking to build or take over a company while establishing a presence in the U.S.

Study

Study pathways allow international students to attend accredited U.S. institutions for academic, vocational, or language programs. Applicants must show acceptance to a school, sufficient financial support, and intent to return home after their studies. These routes can include limited work opportunities and may lead to further options such as practical training or future employment-based pathways.

Corporate Relocation

Corporate relocation pathways allow businesses to move executives, managers, or key employees to the U.S. to establish or support operations. The company must demonstrate an active presence abroad and a genuine need for the transfer. These routes focus on continuity of employment, leadership roles, and business growth in the U.S. They are ideal for companies expanding internationally while retaining trusted personnel to oversee and manage the transition.

US Visa and Entry Issues

Waivers and appeals provide options to overcome visa refusals or inadmissibility issues. Waivers focus on requesting forgiveness for specific grounds by demonstrating factors such as hardship, rehabilitation, or compelling circumstances. Appeals involve challenging a decision based on errors in law or fact. Both require strong supporting evidence and clear arguments. These pathways are used to resolve obstacles and reopen opportunities for entry or immigration to the U.S.

Play in the USA

Visitor pathways allow individuals to travel to the U.S. for tourism, leisure, short-term business, or participation in recreational or amateur activities. The focus is on temporary stays with no intent to work or remain permanently. Applicants must show strong ties outside the U.S. and clear plans to return home. These routes are ideal for holidays, events, or short visits.

Creative

Creative pathways allow artists and professionals in fields such as film, music, design, and media to work in the U.S. based on their talent and experience. Applicants must show a strong portfolio, professional recognition, or involvement in notable projects. These routes support both short-term engagements and longer opportunities, enabling creatives to collaborate, perform, and grow their careers internationally.

Sportspeople

Sports pathways allow athletes, teams, and related professionals to compete, train, or work in the U.S. based on their skill level and recognition. Applicants must demonstrate a strong track record, such as participation in professional leagues, international events, or elite competitions. Opportunities can be short-term or ongoing, supporting career development while showcasing talent at a high level.
