Office of International Affairs

Application Procedures

The International Faculty Advisor works directly hiring departments and is responsible for filing all H-1B petitions at Portland State University. You may not self-petition for H-1B status.

Since the H-1B is an employer-sponsored petition, your hiring department should contact the International Faculty Advisor to begin the process.

If you are a prospective employee, please contact your hiring department about beginning the H-1B sponsorship process. Please see the H-1B application packet for more information on eligibility, requirements, and procedures.
