Toughening International Immigration Legislation Presents Challenges for Global Companies

VISANOW Expands Patented U.S. Process to include International Immigration Services to Facilitate Global Mobility of Workforces during Recession

VISANOW, the established leader in online U.S. Immigration Services, is expanding its offerings to include International Immigration Services, providing global corporations with a one-stop solution for managing worldwide immigration matters for their foreign employees.

While the continued economic downturn is reducing hiring across the board, companies still rely on global workforce mobility as a strategy for hiring for hard-to-fill openings and assisting with staff career management. At the same time, the complexity of the immigration process continues to increase as governments introduce new legislation designed to protect local workforces during a global recession. Effectively managing the additional costs associated with hiring foreign nationals is critical for organizations relying on a mobile workforce to succeed in today's global marketplace.

Since 1998, VISANOW's patented online process has improved the Return On Investment from hiring foreign national employees into the U.S. for thousands of organizations. Now, VISANOW is offering the same predictability and ROI for legal services required to manage the immigration matters involved in workers traveling from the U.S. to other countries or in between foreign countries.

"In times when HR functions consolidate responsibilities and are under increasing pressure to reduce costs, VISANOW's process offers attractive benefits," stated Bob Meltzer, CEO of VISANOW. "Unlike traditional law firms, we utilize our patented technology to streamline the administrative portions of the visa application process, allowing us to offer true flat fees irrespective of case complexity. This is particularly compelling for international visa applications which tend to be more involved. Coupled with industry-leading responsiveness of our specialized attorneys and complete transparency at every step of the way, it translates into ROI brick-and-mortar law firms cannot offer, especially on a global scale."
