H1C Visa - For Registered Nurses

The United States allots 500 H1C Visas annually to registered nurses
that are valid for one three year period, which cannot be renewed.  Due
to the limited amount of H1C’s available and the inability to extend the
visa, most nurses choose to apply for a Nursing Green Card, as there is
presently a shortage of available nurses in the United States.  .  
H1C Visas, if available, are for the following:

  • Hospitals and medical facilities designated to hire registered foreign
    nurses
  • Foreign nurses with an unrestricted license to practice nursing

To determine if an H1C or a Nursing Green Card is appropriate for you,
please contact
Gerald Cipolla & Associates for a consultation.
