ASU IMMIGRATION POLICY
The International Programs Office currently
handles most of the immigration status applications needed to insure
non-citizens are legally eligible to work at ASU. The exception is
student visas and practical training extensions to student visas.
ASU will apply for immigration statuses that authorize university
employment as noted below:
- Application for H1B immigration status may be requested
only for individuals accepting regular (i.e. 6 month or longer) faculty
or academic professional appointments hired through either an open
competitive search or through a waiver of recruitment.
- H-1B status may be requested for post doctoral research associate
positions for no more than a three-year period, and will not
be extended. ASU will not apply for permanent resident status
for individuals in postdoctoral research associate positions.
- J1 immigration status may be requested for: a) faculty or
academic professionals hired through an open, competitive search
or through a waiver of recruitment, and b) exchange visitors coming
to the university to conduct research or be affiliated with ASU but
who will not be ASU employees.
- ASU will not apply for H1B or J1 immigration status for individuals
hired for classified, administrative or service professional positions.
