How to get started
Getting your paperwork in order before arriving in the United States makes everything much smoother from starting your job to opening a bank account. Here’s what to focus on first:
Check your visa options
Make sure you apply for the correct U.S. visa based on your purpose whether you’re visiting, studying, or working. We’ll help you understand the requirements and choose the right path
Apply for your Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)
These tax identification numbers are essential for working, filing taxes, or managing financial matters in the U.S. We’ll help you determine which one you need and how to apply
Prepare your key documents
Gather the certificates, identification documents, and financial evidence required for your visa and arrival ensuring nothing slows down your application or settlement process
Find the right visa for your stay
Whether you’re travelling, studying, or planning to work in the United States, having the right visa is essential.
We help you understand which visa fits your situation and what documents you’ll need to apply
Visitor Visa (B-1/B-2)
For short trips, tourism, business visits, or seeing friends and family. Easy to apply for, but requirements and permitted stay length vary by nationality
Student Visa (F-1 / M-1)
For studying full-time at an accredited U.S. institution. You’ll need an acceptance letter (Form I-20) and proof of financial support before applying
Exchange & Cultural Programs (J-1 Visa)
For young travellers, interns, teachers, au pairs, and participants in approved cultural exchange programs. Sponsor eligibility and program rules apply
Skilled Worker & Employment Visas (H-1B, O-1, E-3, etc.)
For professionals with specialised skills, job offers, or extraordinary abilities. Often requires employer sponsorship and documentation proving your qualifications
Family & Partner Visas (K-1, IR, CR categories)
For joining your partner or family members already living in the United States. Requires substantial documentation and proof of relationship
Visas for Recent Graduates (OPT & STEM-OPT under F-1)
For international students who wish to gain work experience in the U.S. after finishing their studies. Requires school authorisation and application for work permission
Your EIN: essential for working or running a business in the USA
An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is a federal tax identification number issued by the IRS. You’ll need it to register a business, hire employees, open a business bank account, file taxes, or operate legally in the United States.
Even if you’re a sole trader (sole proprietor) or a non-resident starting a business from abroad, an EIN is often required to manage your U.S. tax obligations smoothly.
Without an EIN, many financial institutions won’t allow you to open accounts, and you may face delays or complications when filing taxes or setting up your business.
Eligibility requirements (who can apply)
Documents needed for your application
Do you need an ITIN?
An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) is required if you need to file taxes or handle financial matters in the United States but you’re not eligible for a Social Security Number (SSN).
It’s a unique tax identifier issued by the IRS, allowing you to file tax returns, receive tax refunds, open certain financial accounts, comply with visa requirements, and manage payments correctly while living, working, or investing in the U.S.
We’ll help you determine whether you need an ITIN, guide you through the application process, and ensure your documentation is prepared correctly so you can meet your tax obligations without stress.
Do you need a Social Security Number (SSN)?
A Social Security Number is essential for most day-to-day activities in the United States from starting a job and paying taxes to opening a bank account or accessing government services
If you’re moving to the U.S. to work, study, or live long-term, you may need an SSN depending on your visa category and eligibility.
But the rules can be confusing, and applying without the right documents can lead to delays.
We’ll help you understand whether you qualify, what documents you’ll need, and how to apply correctly so everything goes smoothly from the start.
