Hello, I'm a French freelance consultant. I have started talks with a New-Jersay based potential client. If they are ready to have me work for them how is the best and quickest way to optain permit to work in ths US? I will be a contractor with very speciallized skills (software for dealing rooms). I have my own company in France and could setup one in the US or use someone else's as an intermiedary to my client. I have been sub-contracting to a software company that has a branch in NY. If there is a solution, how long is it going to take?
One of the solution is to set up a company in the US. Alternatively you could be employed by a consultancy company but in that cas you need to be sponsored to get a work visa as an employee I assume.
