        Las visas P-3 generalmente son para personas que vienen temporalmente a los Estados Unidos para actuar, enseñar o entrenar como artistas o animadores, individualmente o como parte de un grupo, bajo un programa que es culturalmente único.


        Comúnmente, se cree que las visas P-3 están destinadas a artistas, bailarines, escultores, entrenadores deportivos, etc. Pero, ¿sabía usted que las visas P-3 pueden ser especialmente atractivas para profesionales culinarios como chefs, sous chefs o incluso pasteleros?


Criterios de elegibilidad para la visa P-3


        Para ser elegible para una visa P-3, debe venir a los Estados Unidos ya sea individualmente o en grupo con el propósito de desarrollar, interpretar, representar, entrenar o enseñar una cultura étnica, folclórica, cultural, única o tradicional. representación o presentación musical, teatral o artística. Además, debe venir a los Estados Unidos para participar en uno o varios eventos culturales que promoverán la comprensión o el desarrollo de su forma de arte.

        El período máximo de estadía para esta visa es de un (1) año y los familiares (cónyuge de hijos solteros menores de 21 años) podrán acompañar al Solicitante P-3 obteniendo una visa P-4.


¿Qué hace que esta visa sea atractiva para los profesionales culinarios?

      Muchos restaurantes en los Estados Unidos buscan mostrar y desarrollar/mejorar la comprensión del patrimonio cultural único de su país a través de la comida. Como todos los países y regiones del mundo tienen su propio estilo culinario especializado y perfiles de sabor, traer estas experiencias a los Estados Unidos y exponer a los comensales estadounidenses a estas culturas es una forma invaluable de promover la unidad global y conectarnos a través de un interés compartido: ¡la comida!


      Estos restaurantes suelen cocinar recetas tradicionales y auténticas que demuestran el sabor, el olor, el aroma y la presentación únicos de los platos culinarios de su cultura. La mayoría de las veces, los mejores profesionales culinarios para lograr esto son nativos o ciudadanos de ese país en particular, que han sido capacitados en los métodos y prácticas culinarias tradicionales para preparar estos platos.


        Tener un chef nativo en el personal distingue al restaurante y su comida de otros en la industria que ofrecen cocina similar. El dominio del chef de las técnicas culinarias de un país en particular crea una experiencia culturalmente única, que fomentará el aprecio de los Estados Unidos por la cocina culturalmente diversa y trascenderá el paladar del huésped del restaurante.


        Por ejemplo, si usted es propietario y opera un auténtico bistró griego, que cocina exclusivamente recetas tradicionales griegas, y desea incorporar chefs o cocineros nacionales griegos para que formen parte de su equipo y lo ayuden a desarrollar el aprecio y la comprensión de la cocina griega en Estados Unidos, entonces ¡La visa P-3 puede ser adecuada para usted!


       Esta visa no sólo es beneficiosa para el chef o cocinero que la recibirá (ya que les permitirá tener la oportunidad de venir a los EE. UU. y perfeccionar sus habilidades), sino también para el propietario del restaurante, quien puede obtener una mayor prensa y beneficios financieros al tener a un profesional tan talentoso y único en su personal.

New USCIS Policy regarding Expedite Requests

By Kris Quadros-Ragar • 18 Apr, 2024
The latest policy alert, PA-2024-05, issued by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) on March 21, 2024, brings revisions to the USCIS Policy Manual, specifically focusing on expediting requests. These updates aim to simplify and elucidate the process for applicants, particularly those facing emergencies or urgent humanitarian needs. The primary goal is to make it easier for applicants to understand how to request expedited processing for their various submissions, including applications, petitions, appeals, or motions, especially in cases concerning government interests or urgent situations. While USCIS has historically permitted immigration benefit seekers to request expedited application processing in specific circumstances, the process has frequently been perceived as unclear, with decisions made arbitrarily on a case-by-case basis. The recent update seeks to rectify this by providing clarity and uniformity to the process and establishing explicit criteria and documentation standards. In order to request expedited processing, applicants need to adhere to a more defined procedure. This involves submitting thorough documentation and illustrating the urgency or government relevance of their case. The recent update also explains how USCIS reviews these requests, offering applicants a better grasp of the process. The update introduces special measures for speeding up the processing of Form I-131 (Application for Travel Document) in emergency situations. This acknowledges the urgent need for certain applicants to travel. The policy also acknowledges that expedited requests may be evaluated if there is evident USCIS error, aiming to uphold fairness and accountability within the processing system. These changes aim to make the expedited request process more transparent and understandable for applicants and their representatives. In summary, USCIS's revision regarding expedited requests signifies a notable advancement in rendering the immigration process more transparent and attentive to applicants' requirements. By comprehending these updated guidelines, applicants and their representatives can more effectively navigate the expedited request procedure, ensuring that urgent cases receive due consideration. If you believe you qualify for expedited processing under the recent USCIS policy updates, feel free to contact our office, and we will be more than happy to assist you.

New USCIS Asylum Program Fee for I-129 and I-140 Petitions

By Kyle Huffman • 11 Apr, 2024
As of April 1, 2024, USCIS has instituted an inflation adjustment to immigration application filing fees . These fee increases apply to a majority of the different application types, including family-based, non-immigrant, and immigrant petitions. As a part of these fee increases, USCIS has also instituted a new program designed to provide funding to the United States’ Asylum Program, in order to better address the massive backlog of pending asylum claims currently waiting to be adjudicated. Unfortunately, these changes have led to confusion among petitioners for when they are required to pay the Asylum Program Fee, and when they may qualify for a 50% or complete exemption from the fee. The Asylum Program Fee is required to be submitted by employers in all I-129 and I-140 petitions filed on or after April 1, 2024. The Asylum Program Fee is $600, however, certain exemptions apply . Small employers , defined as having 25 or fewer total employees, qualify for a reduction of the Asylum Program Fee, but are still required to submit a reduced fee of $300. Individual petitioners, or self-petitions, such as in the case of an EB-2 National Interest Waiver, are considered small employers for the purpose of the Asylum Program Fee and are also required to submit the reduced $300 fee. Non-profit organizations are exempted from the Asylum Program fee and are not required to submit any additional funds with the ordinary I-129 or I-140 filing fee. In addition, non-profits qualify for a 50% reduction of the ordinary filing fee in certain types of applications, bringing the overall filing fee burden down substantially for non-profit organizations. With these changes to USCIS’ filing fee schedule, USCIS is hoping for significant improvements to efficiency and processing for pending asylum applicants. If you or your petitioning organization need any assistance in preparing an application for an immigration benefit, including ensuring proper compliance with the new fee requirements, our office is ready and waiting to help!
