H-1A Petition

Definition

In the United States, this was a petition for the H-1A visa category, which was previously available for foreign nurses coming to the United States to work in healthcare positions that required the skills of a registered nurse. The H-1A program was discontinued in 1995. The Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas (NRDAA) program was created to replace the H-1A program, and foreign nurses are now typically eligible for H-1B visas if they meet the necessary requirements for specialty occupation positions. It's important to note that the information provided here might not be up-to-date, so it's recommended to check with official U.S. government sources or legal experts for the most current information regarding visa categories for nurses and healthcare professionals
