There are a few different documents that we ask from the Participant from the very beginning. This allows us to check that everything is in order prior to communicating with a possible host company, and so that when the time comes to begin the Visa issuance process, the Architect-US team can submit everything on time so that once we receive everything from the Host Company the process for the participant to go to the U.S stays within 30 days.
