What Form I-129 is for
Used by employers to petition for temporary nonimmigrant workers in eligible visa classifications.
Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker (I-129) is generally filed by employers, workers, and investors in employment-based immigration categories. Whether this form fits your situation depends on your specific facts, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official USCIS page before you file.

Fees and official sources
USCIS filing fees change periodically and vary by category, age, and filing method. We do not quote government fees from memory. Always verify the current I-129 filing fee, payment method, and any form-specific fee rules on the official USCIS page before you submit.
Processing times for I-129 vary widely by service center, workload, and case complexity, and they change month to month. Check current estimates with the USCIS processing-times tool and your receipt notice rather than relying on a fixed number. Filing a complete, well-organized packet is the best way to avoid Requests for Evidence that add delay.
USCIS government fees are separate from Asal preparation fees. Verify current fees on USCIS.gov.

Frequently asked questions
How long does I-129 preparation take?+
Most I-129 packets are ready within 24–48 hours after you provide all required documents. Complex cases with many supporting documents may take slightly longer. We give you a realistic timeline at your free consultation. USCIS processing time after you file is separate and depends on the agency's current workload.
Can you help me if I started my I-129 application somewhere else?+
Yes. We often help Laurelville clients who started their I-129 elsewhere and want a second set of eyes before submission. Bring whatever you have completed so far and we will review it, identify any gaps, and complete the packet correctly.
Do I need to come to your Columbus office, or can you help Laurelville clients remotely?+
Most of our work is done in-office at our Morse Road location so we can review original documents in person. Many Laurelville clients find the drive worthwhile because of the thorough document review. Call (380) 269-7408 to discuss your situation before making the trip.
What happens if USCIS sends a Request for Evidence on my I-129?+
If you receive an RFE after submission your I-129, call us at (380) 269-7408. We help build response packets and organize the additional documents USCIS is requesting. Note that legal strategy for complex RFEs may require a licensed immigration attorney.
