H‑1B1 Visa: how Chilean professionals can work legally in the U.S. with expert support

The H‑1B1 Visa represents a real and accessible opportunity for Chileans who want to take their career abroad. Thanks to instruments like this and the mediation of specialized advisors like Visability, professional internationalization is closer than ever.

What is the H-1B1 Visa and why is it especially relevant for Chileans?

The H‑1B1 Visa is a unique option available exclusively to citizens of Chile and Singapore. It emerged as part of the free trade agreement between Chile and the U.S., and allows qualified professionals to access specialized jobs in the U.S. through a legal work permit. Most interesting: it is more accessible than other immigration categories, as it does not depend on a lottery, and grants an initial duration of 18 months with the possibility of indefinite renewals.

What are the main benefits of the H-1B1 compared to other options?

This visa offers clear advantages:

• Greater availability: an annual quota reserved for Chileans, avoiding competition from the traditional H‑1B.
• More agile process: does not require a lottery, simplifying times and bureaucracy.
• Long-term stability: allows unlimited renewals and provides legal employment status in the U.S., unlike the ESTA visa.

How to apply for the H-1B1 Visa step by step?

The application process, according to the Radio Agricultura report, includes several clear steps:

1. Professional profile evaluation to determine eligibility.
2. Review and support from the U.S. employer.
3. Obtaining a formal job offer.
4. Preparation and submission of documents.
5. Specialized support for the consular interview.
