Business Immigration Attorneys for Employers
Helping Employers Hire and Retain Global Talent
For many businesses, hiring the right person can be essential to growth, productivity, and long-term success. When the right candidate is a foreign national, employers must navigate a complex immigration process involving eligibility requirements, government filings, deadlines, documentation, and compliance obligations.
At Kanu & Associates, P.C., we help employers, entrepreneurs, and investors understand their business immigration options and move forward with a clear legal strategy. Our firm serves businesses in Arizona, New Mexico, and beyond with employment-based immigration guidance, employer compliance support, and representation before the appropriate government agencies.
Business immigration is more than paperwork. It is workforce planning, compliance, and business strategy.

H-1B and Professional Workers
The H-1B process can help employers hire foreign workers in specialty occupation positions that generally require specialized knowledge and appropriate educational qualifications. These cases often require careful documentation of the offered position, the employer’s business need, the worker’s credentials, wage requirements, and the relationship between the job duties and the required degree field.
Our firm helps employers prepare strong, organized H-1B filings and respond to Requests for Evidence when additional documentation is requested.
H-2A and H-2B Employer Support
Some businesses need temporary or seasonal workers to meet labor demands. The H-2A program may assist qualifying agricultural employers, while the H-2B program may assist certain employers with temporary nonagricultural labor needs.
These processes involve detailed government requirements, timing issues, recruitment steps, wage obligations, and documentation. Kanu & Associates, P.C. helps employers understand the process and prepare filings with careful attention to compliance.
Employment-Based Green Card Sponsorship
For employers who want to retain valuable foreign national workers long term, employment-based permanent residence may be an option. These cases require strategic planning, detailed documentation, and careful coordination between the employer and employee.
Our firm can assist with employment-based immigrant petitions, case planning, evidence preparation, and related immigration strategy.
Investor and Entrepreneur Immigration
Business immigration is not limited to employers hiring workers. Entrepreneurs and investors may also have immigration options based on business ownership, investment, job creation, or specialized business plans.
Kanu & Associates, P.C. helps investors and entrepreneurs evaluate potential immigration strategies and prepare documentation that supports the business purpose, investment activity, operational plans, and eligibility requirements.
Requests for Evidence and Government Challenges
A Request for Evidence can be stressful for both the employer and the employee. It may challenge the job duties, employer’s business operations, wage level, employee qualifications, worksite details, or other parts of the filing.
Our firm helps employers respond with organized legal arguments and supporting evidence designed to address the government’s concerns.
We can assist with RFEs involving:
- Specialty occupation issues
- Employer-employee relationship concerns
- Job duty documentation
- Wage and worksite questions
- Business operations evidence
- Employee qualifications
- Maintenance of status issues
- Investment or business viability questions
Employer Compliance Is Critical
When hiring foreign national workers, employers must follow immigration rules before, during, and after the filing process. Compliance issues may involve employment eligibility verification, job duties, wages, worksites, public access files, DOL requirements, USCIS representations, and ongoing documentation.
Our firm helps employers understand and manage these responsibilities so they can reduce risk while meeting workforce needs.
