Say, you're recruiting a person from India and wanted him to join your company in US.
In such case:
- What does it take to get this authorization?
- How long might it take?
- Is there additional cost to the employer?

There are so many variables that it isn't funny. It depends heavily on the specific country, and yes, there will be anywhere from 5 to 10k cost to the employer

@DavidK Not Travel. Travel is for short-term things like vacations. Expatriates might take it, but they are more from the side of the person moving.

I lean toward keeping it open. The sordid state of affairs around the US H1B program is widely known. If someone else asks a question about getting a job in Benin while living in Paraguay we can decide if that's too obscure separately.

- Typically you need to sponsor an H1B visa application. See http://www.workpermit.com/us/investor_h-1b.htm
- It can take years. H1B are issued once a year and there is a lottery. The lottery makes it unpredictable.
- Typically in involves an immigration layer to file the application. Many thousands of dollars
Is H1B the only visa-type? I have heard of cases when people get the visa in days.
